sort a array code example

Example 1: sort javascript array

var points = [40, 100, 1, 5, 25, 10];
points.sort((a,b) => a-b)

Example 2: sort array java

Here’s the java program to sort an array using Arrays.sort() method.

import java.util.Arrays;
public class JavaArraySortMethod
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      String[] strGiven = {"Great Barrier Reef", "Paris", "borabora", "Florence","tokyo", "Cusco"};
      Arrays.sort(strGiven);
      System.out.println("Output(case sensitive) : " + Arrays.toString(strGiven));
   }
}

Example 3: mdn js sort

var numbers = [4, 2, 5, 1, 3];
numbers.sort(function(a, b) {
  return a - b;
});
console.log(numbers);

// [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Example 4: array sort js

arr = ['width', 'score', done', 'neither' ]
arr.sort() // results to ["done", "neither", "score", "width"]

arr.sort((a,b) => a.localeCompare(b)) 
// if a-b (based on their unicode values) produces a negative value, 
// a comes before b, the reverse if positive, and as is if zero

//When you sort an array with .sort(), it assumes that you are sorting strings
//. When sorting numbers, the default behavior will not sort them properly.
arr = [21, 7, 5.6, 102, 79]
arr.sort((a, b) => a - b) // results to [5.6, 7, 21, 79, 102]
// b - a will give you the reverse order of the sorted items 

//this explnation in not mine

Example 5: how to sort an array

import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaExample 
{
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
    	int count, temp;
    	
    	//User inputs the array size
        Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter number of elements you want in the array: ");
        count = scan.nextInt();
    
        int num[] = new int[count];
        System.out.println("Enter array elements:");
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) 
        {
            num[i] = scan.nextInt();
        }
        scan.close();
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) 
        {
            for (int j = i + 1; j < count; j++) { 
                if (num[i] > num[j]) 
                {
                    temp = num[i];
                    num[i] = num[j];
                    num[j] = temp;
                }
            }
        }
        System.out.print("Array Elements in Ascending Order: ");
        for (int i = 0; i < count - 1; i++) 
        {
            System.out.print(num[i] + ", ");
        }
        System.out.print(num[count - 1]);
    }
}

Example 6: sort function

var vehicules= [
   { nom: "Peugeot 208 1,2l PureTech", img:"208.png" , co2:108 },
   { nom: "Peugeot 5008 2.0 BlueHDi 150", img:"5008.png" , co2: 118 },
   { nom: "Golf GTI", img:"golfgti.png" , co2:148 },
   { nom: "Renault Clio 0.9 TCe 90", img:"clio.jpg" , co2:114 },
   { nom: "Audi A4 2.0 TDI 190", img:"a4.png" , co2: 111},
   { nom: "BMW Serie 2 Tourer 220d", img:"serie2tourer.png" , co2:124 },
   { nom: "Audi SQ7", img:"sq7.png" , co2:198 },
   { nom: "Audi TTS", img:"tts.png" , co2:159 },
];
vehicules.sort(function (a, b) {
   return a.co2 - b.co2;
});
vehicules.forEach(function(v) {
   console.log(v.nom+" avec "+v.co2+" g de CO2/km");    
});
