sort (original) (raw)

Arrange values in order.

Alternatives: sort, sort$.
Similar: sort, rangedSort, partialSort, rangedPartialSort.

function sort(x, fc, fm, fs) // x: an array // fc: compare function (a, b) // fm: map function (v, i, x) // fs: swap function (x, i, j)

const xarray = require('extra-array');

// Sort using default comparison. var x = [-2, -3, 1, 4]; xarray.sort(x); // → [ -3, -2, 1, 4 ] (compares numbers)

// Sort using absolute comparison. xarray.sort(x, (a, b) => Math.abs(a) - Math.abs(b)); // → [ 1, -2, -3, 4 ]

// Sort using absolute values. xarray.sort(x, null, v => Math.abs(v)); // → [ 1, -2, -3, 4 ]
