table.sort (table [, comp])
table[1]
to table[n]
,
where n
is the length of the table.
If comp
is given,
then it must be a function that receives two table elements,
and returns true
when the first is less than the second
(so that not comp(a[i+1],a[i])
will be true after the sort).
If comp
is not given,
then the standard Lua operator <
is used instead.
The sort algorithm is not stable; that is, elements considered equal by the given order may have their relative positions changed by the sort.
