sorting array from highest to lowest javascript
// Sort an array of numbers
let numbers = [5, 13, 1, 44, 32, 15, 500]
// Lowest to highest
let lowestToHighest = numbers.sort((a, b) => a - b);
//Output: [1,5,13,15,32,44,500]
//Highest to lowest
let highestToLowest = numbers.sort((a, b) => b-a);
//Output: [500,44,32,15,13,5,1]javascript orderby
var items = [
{ name: 'Edward', value: 21 },
{ name: 'Sharpe', value: 37 },
{ name: 'And', value: 45 },
{ name: 'The', value: -12 },
{ name: 'Magnetic', value: 13 },
{ name: 'Zeros', value: 37 }
];
// sort by value
items.sort(function (a, b) {
return a.value - b.value;
});
// sort by name
items.sort(function(a, b) {
var nameA = a.name.toUpperCase(); // ignore upper and lowercase
var nameB = b.name.toUpperCase(); // ignore upper and lowercase
if (nameA < nameB) {
return -1;
}
if (nameA > nameB) {
return 1;
}
// names must be equal
return 0;
});how the sort function works javascript
const unsorted = ['d', 'd', 'h', 'r', 'v', 'z', 'f', 'c', 'g'];
const sorted = unsorted.sort();
console.log(sorted);
//["c", "d", "d", "f", "g", "h", "r", "v", "z"]
const unsortedNums = [45, 56, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7, 45, 1];
const sortedNums = unsortedNums.sort((a, b) => {
return a - b;
});
console.log(sortedNums);
//[1, 3, 3, 4, 6, 7, 45, 45, 56]sort by ascending javascript
const months = ['March', 'Jan', 'Feb', 'Dec'];
months.sort();
console.log(months);
// expected output: Array ["Dec", "Feb", "Jan", "March"]string sort javascript
var names = ["Peter", "Emma", "Jack", "Mia"];
var sorted = names.sort(); // ["Emma", "Jack", "Mia", "Peter"]how to sort an array in javascript
you can sort array in different ways:
first....by using the sort method
ex: let arr = ["a", "d", "b", "c", "f"]
let res = arr.sort()
NOTE: this method is not ideal
second...... by using the sort function
ex: let arr = [1, 10, 11, 30, 100, 50, 45]
let res = arr.sort((a, b)=> a - b ).....this sorts in ascending order
let res = arr.sort((a, b)=> b - a ) ...this sorts in descending order
NOTE: we can also user different algorithms to sort an array. example: bubble sort,
quick sort, merge sort etc.
