1. Sort insensitive
I am still a bit unsure about the most efficient ways to work with
sequences. I wanted a case insensitive sort, so I used custom_sort() for
the first time. I defined sorti() as shown below:
--Rsort.e
include sort.e
integer iInsensitive
function CompareInsensitive(sequence a, sequence b)
return compare(upper(a[1]),upper(b[1]))
end function
iInsensitive = routine_id("CompareInsensitive")
global function sorti(sequence s)
--/ Do a case insensitive sort
return custom_sort(iInsensitive, s)
end function --sorti
--end file
I am going to be sorting some large sequences, case insensitive.
Is the code above the fastest way to do it using normal Euphoria
routines and statements?
