sort vector in ascending order c++ code example

Example 1: how to sort a vector in reverse c++

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main() {
   vector<int> v = { 10, 9, 8, 6, 7, 2, 5, 1 };
   sort(v.begin(), v.end(), greater <>());
}

Example 2: sort vector struct c++

struct data{
    string word;
    int number;
};


bool my_cmp(const data& a, const data& b)
{
    // smallest comes first
    return a.number < b.number;
}

std::sort(A.begin(), A.end(), my_cmp);

Example 3: sort vector c++

sort(begin(v), end(v), [] (int a, int b) { return a > b; }); // decrease

Example 4: sort a vector c++

sort(a.begin(), a.end());
