julialangHow to sort in JuliaLang?


JuliaLang provides a variety of sorting algorithms to sort data. The most commonly used sorting algorithm is the sort() function. This function takes an array or collection of elements as an argument and returns a sorted array.

Example

julia> arr = [3, 2, 1]
3-element Array{Int64,1}:
 3
 2
 1

julia> sort(arr)
3-element Array{Int64,1}:
 1
 2
 3

The code above sorts the array arr in ascending order.

The sort() function has several optional parameters that can be used to customize the sorting behavior. These parameters include:

  • by: A function that defines the sorting order.
  • rev: A boolean value that determines whether the sorting order is reversed.
  • alg: The sorting algorithm to use.

Code explanation

  • arr: This is the array to be sorted.
  • sort(): This is the sorting function.
  • by: This is an optional parameter that defines the sorting order.
  • rev: This is an optional parameter that determines whether the sorting order is reversed.
  • alg: This is an optional parameter that specifies the sorting algorithm to use.
