Re^2: sorting number

My guess is that it was the CORE8 that was misplaced, and GrandFather's and Tux's solutions are the expected output.

I suppose you meant to write <=> on the right side? Otherwise your code gives the same output as a plain sort

"My guess is that it was the CORE8 that was misplaced, ..." Quite possibly - it's all guesswork. :-) "I suppose you meant to write `<=>` on the right side?" No, `cmp` was intended. I was aiming to indicate that `cmp` would give "11 115 12 130"; whereas `<=>` would give "11 12 115 130". It would appear I failed to communicate my intent. Thanks for pointing this out and giving me the opportunity to provide clarification. — Ken	[reply] [d/l] [select]
