ASORT

Syntax:

ASORT( NormArray, %Direction)

Description:

Sort a normal array.

Action:

The data elements in the specified array are sorted, in ascending or

descending order, as specified by the Direction parameter.

Parameters:

NormArray. Normal array variable. The normal array to sort. Can

be a string or integer array.
Direction. Integer expression. Indicates the order in which to sort
the data—ascending or descending. Valid constants are ASC for

ascending and DESC for descending.

Returns:

N/A.

Notes:

The array is sorted “in-place”. The order of the original array is lost.

Example:

ASSOCKEYS( $AssocArray, $Keys)
ASORT( $Keys, ASC)
// now we can traverse the associative array in a
// consistent order
