Hi monks! I facing a problem what it should be easy to fix it but i don't know how. I have a script which opens a lot of log files and pull the data to different hashes. For the sake of organization, i translate the dates to epoc and organize in my hash the info using the epoc time as the second hash, to prevent duplicates and to sort the hash results to present them in chronologic order. Well, the problem its sort isn't sorting epoc numbers :( 
foreach $cat ( keys %data ) {
    foreach $date ( keys %{ $data{$cat} }) {
        print "<tr>";
        foreach $data_type (sort { $a cmp $b } keys %{ $data{$cat}{$da
+te} } ) {
            print "<td align='left'>$data{$cat}{$date}{$data_type}</td
+>";
            #print "<br>";
        }
        print "</tr>";
    }
    
}

$cat = category, i have 4, that runs. $date = its the date en epoc, this doesn't run $date_type = the type of data we are going to print, this works. The results of the sort that is not shorting are:

As you can see, there is not sorting. :(
