js .sort method code example

Example 1: sort javascript array

// ascending and discending for number
const arr1 = [21, 2100, 2, 35000];
const arr2 = [21, 2100, 2, 35000];

let ascN = arr1.sort((f, s) => f - s);
let dscN = arr2.sort((f, s) => s - f);

// ascending and discending for string
const arr3 = ['21', '2100', '2', '35000'];
const arr4 = ['21', '2100', '2', '35000'];

let ascS = arr3.sort((f, s) => f.length - s.length);
let dscS = arr4.sort((f, s) => s.length - f.length);
