Re: How can one find five max values and five min values with positions in descending and ascending order from arrays?

What did you try?

  DB<103> @h{@y}=@x
 => ("c", "d", "e", "f", "k", "l", "m", "n")

  DB<104> @h{(sort @y)[0..4]}
 => ("f", "n", "c", "e", "d")

  DB<105> @h{(sort @y)[-5..-1]}
 => ("e", "d", "l", "m", "k")
