Question

I am new to swift.I am trying one sample app in which I need to implement the sorting of an array in alphabetical order.I getting the json data and I am adding the titles in

Answer 1

Swift4

var names = [ "Alpha", "alpha", "bravo", "beta"]
var sortedNames = names.sorted { $0.localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare($1) == ComparisonResult.orderedAscending }
print(sortedNames) //Logs ["Alpha", "alpha","beta", "bravo"]

Answer 2

Swift 4(working code)

JSON response -> Stored in aryNameList

"DATA": [
{
        email = "iosworker@gmail.com";
        firstname = Harvey
},
{
        email = "poonam@openxcell.com";
        firstname = poonam
},
{
        email = "t@t.com";
        firstname = rahul
},
{
        email = "android.testapps@gmail.com";
        firstname = Chulbulx
},
{
        email = "t@t2.com";
        firstname = rahul
},
{
        email = "jaystevens32@gmail.com";
        firstname = Jay
},
{
        email = "royronald47@gmail.com";
        firstname = Roy
},
{
        email = "regmanjones@hotmail.com";
        firstname = Regan
},
{
        email = "jd@gmail.com";
        firstname = Jaydip
}
]

Code

    self.aryNameList = self.aryNameList.sorted(by: { (Obj1, Obj2) -> Bool in
       let Obj1_Name = Obj1.firstname ?? ""
       let Obj2_Name = Obj2.firstname ?? ""
       return (Obj1_Name.localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare(Obj2_Name) == .orderedAscending)
    })

working every case (for ex: lowerCase, upperCase..)

Answer 3

Try this one

var names = [ "Alpha", "alpha", "bravo"]
var sortedNames = names.sort { $0.localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare($1) == NSComparisonResult.OrderedAscending }
print(sortedNames) //Logs ["Alpha", "alpha", "bravo"]

Answer 4

For an array of objects:

items = items.sorted(by: { (item1, item2) -> Bool in
        return item1.product.name.compare(item2.product.name) == ComparisonResult.orderedAscending
    })

Answer 5

Swift 3 solution:

let yourStringArray = [ "beTA", "ALPha", "Beta", "Alpha"]
var sortedArray = yourStringArray.sorted()
// Result will be ["ALPha", "Alpha", "Beta", "beTA"]

Answer 6

Use this simple code of line to sort ur array

 let sortedNames = names.sort { $0.name < $1.name }

For Swift 4 you can use only this

let sortedNames = names.sorted(by: <)
