Returns an Array object with the elements sorted.
arrayobj.sort(sortFunction)
arrayObj
Required. Any Array object.
sortFunction
Optional. The name of the function used to determine the order of the elements. If omitted, the elements are sorted in ascending, ASCII character order.
The sort method sorts the Array object in place; no new Array object is created during execution.
If you supply a function in the sortFunction argument, it must return one of the following values:
The following example illustrates the use of the sort method.
function SortDemo(){
var a, l; //Declare variables.
a = new Array("X" ,"y" ,"d", "Z", "v","m","r");
l = a.sort(); //Sort the array.
return(l); //Return sorted array.
}
