Hi!

Okay, I have an AoA (or basically a matrix) and I want to sort all the entries based on one column. So I need something like

1 3 4 5
5 1 2 4   sorting on the second column (or array [ ][ ]);
[download]

to become

5 1 2 4
1 3 4 5
[download]

I have thought about doing this:

 @temp = [sort {$b cmp$a} @{$array [ ]}];
[download]

but it doesn't work. I'm not super amazing at perl, so any @_ syntax thrown out I would need to be explained! Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!
