C# sorting strings small and capital letters

Question

Is there a standard functionality which will allow me to sort capital and small letters in the following way or I should implement a custom comparator:

stude         


        

Answer 1

Do you mean something on these lines

List sort = new List() { "student", "Students", "students", 
                                         "Student" };
List custsort=sort.OrderByDescending(st => st[0]).ThenBy(s => s.Length)
                                                         .ToList();

The first one orders it by the first character and then by the length. It matches the output you suggested by then as per the pattern i mentioned above else you will do some custom comparer
