Custom Collation Ordering

Question

Is there a way in .NET/C# to sort a List according to a custom alphabetical order?

I have a list of words:

{ \"badum\", \"         


        

Answer 1

You can pass custom sorter to the List.Sort() method:

List foo = new List();
foo.Sort((a, b) => a.CompareTo(b));

This will sort the list in place depending on which criteria you want to use (above obviously does just a regular string comparison).
