I have the following code:
$hash{me}{sorter_total}=10; $hash{john}{sorter_total}=30; $hash{landon}{sorter_total}=20; $hash{jimmy}{sorter_total}=40; foreach my $user ($hash) { @sorted = (sort {$b <=> $a} keys %{$hash{$user}{sorter_total}}); } foreach (@sorted) { print "$_\n"; }
I'm trying to get it to print in order according to the value of sorter_total as follows:
jimmy
john
landon
me

I realize the data structure doesn't look right when this is all you see, but I just narrowed my problem down to this bit of sample code. How to get them to print according to value?

Thank you!
