Interface Comparator

sort

• sort(a: [any, any], b: [any, any]): number

• This method is used to determine order of entries when sorting.

  • If return value is a negative value, a comes after b,
  • If return value is a positive value, a comes before b,
  • If return value is 0, a and b are indistinguishable in this sorting mechanism. Their order with respect to each other is undefined. This method must always return the same result given the same pair of keys.

  Parameters

  • a: [any, any]

    first entry

  • b: [any, any]
