Problem 689. Sort an array of structures
You need to sort an array of structures based upon a numeric first field:
For example :
a.n=1; a.name='a'; b.n=3; b.name='b'; c.n=2; c.name='c'; array = [a b c]
This array of 3 structures is not sorted yet since:
>> array(2)
shows: ans =
n: 3 name: 'b'
The aim is to have for this example the output array such as :
>> array(1)
ans =
n: 1 name: 'a'
>> array(2)
ans =
n: 2 name: 'c'
>> array(3)
ans =
n: 3 name: 'b'
The input of this problem is an array of structures. .
