Re: Re: Efficiently sorting array by non-alpha strings

But the Hash (%h) should only setup once in my solution, at the top of a script or so. That gives:

           Rate   knowmad browseruk    pirate   abigail    borisz
knowmad   22.1/s        --      -49%      -80%      -93%      -95%
browseruk 43.4/s       96%        --      -61%      -86%      -89%
pirate     111/s      403%      156%        --      -64%      -73%
abigail    308/s     1291%      609%      177%        --      -25%
borisz     411/s     1758%      847%      270%       34%

Highly suspicious results. You didn't publish source, but I have a hunch your code has `%h` lexical to the main program. This will make the sort a linear pass (no sorting happens). Try again with `our %h`. Abigail	[reply]

You are right, very impressive abigail-ii found my bug without any source. Here the corrected results: `Rate knowmad browseruk borisz pirate abigail knowmad 22.1/s -- -49% -72% -80% -93% browseruk 43.0/s 94% -- -45% -62% -86% borisz 78.5/s 255% 83% -- -30% -74% pirate 112/s 407% 161% 43% -- -64% abigail 308/s 1291% 616% 292% 174% --` [download] Boris	[reply] [d/l]
