More on JavaScript Array Objects - Fixing the Issue
(Page 5 of 5 )
To fix this issue, we would do the following:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function sortItOut(a,b)
{
return a - b;
}
var numby = new Array(7);
numby[0] = "100";
numby[1] = "9";
numby[2] = "20";
numby[3] = "25";
numby[4] = "5000";
numby[5] = "40";
numby[6] = "-40";
document.write("Unsorted: ");
document.write(numby + "<br />");
document.write("Sorted: ");
document.write(numby.sort(sortItOut));
</script>
</body>
</html>
It's just that simple folks. As you can see, it even handles negative numbers. The result:
Unsorted: 100,9,20,25,5000,40,-40
Sorted: -40,9,20,25,40,100,5000
Well, that isn't all of our Array Objects, but it's all the time we have left for this episode. There are still eight remaining (if we cover our Object Properties, which we most certainly will), so be sure to drop back in for the next installment.
Till then...
