Is there a quick way to sort array? Or do I have to get the elements
of each and sort them?
I want to sort an array in which each element is a numeric value, and
I want the keys sorted accordinlgly.
The best i can come up with is this:
function array_GetSortByNumber someArray
combine someArray by CR and comma
sort someArray descending numeric by item 2 of each
set the columndelimiter to comma
split someArray by column
put someArray [1] into sortedKeys
return sortedKeys
end array_GetSortByNumber
Better ideas anyone?
