natural-sort

This question already has an answer here: Natural Sort Order in C# 16 answers I have been hunting around for a solution to this for a while now. When I sort the below using a string sort I have a list of: 10 10b 1111 1164 1174 23 23A 23B 23D 23E I really want the list to be: 10 10b 23 23A 23B 23D 23E 1111 1164 1174 A numerical sort does not do the job either. If you have LINQ, you can use OrderBy : Regex digitPart = new Regex(@"^\d+", RegexOptions.Compiled); ... myList.OrderBy(x => int.Parse(digitPart.Match(x).Value)) John Arlen The easiest is to wrap the Win32 API call as explained in https:/

I have firmware version strings into my table (like "4.2.2" or "4.2.16") How can I compare, select or sort them ? I cannot use standard strings comparison : "4.2.2" is a seen by SQL greater than "4.2.16" As version strings, I would like 4.2.16 to be greater than 4.2.2 I would like to consider that firmware version can have chars in them : 4.24a1, 4.25b3 ... for this, usually, the subfield with chars has a fixed length. how to proceed ? If all your version numbers look like any of these: X X.X X.X.X X.X.X.X where X is an integer from 0 to 255 (inclusive), then you could use the INET_ATON()

Basically, I am trying to sort a table by its name. The table is relatively big, but I am posting only one column, for sake of example. The Column is Station below Station === ANTIL WELL 1 ANTIL WELL 2 BASELINE & CALIFORNIA WELL EPA WELL 6 EPA WELL 7 EPA WELL 108 EPA WELL 109 EPA WELL 110 EPA WELL 111 EPA WELL 112 EPA WELL 108S The sort above was achieved by me trying this: order by left(station,LEN(station) -PATINDEX('%[^0-9]%',REVERSE(station))+1) ,CONVERT(int,REVERSE(LEFT(REVERSE(station), PATINDEX('%[^0-9]%',REVERSE(station)) - 1))) However, I just can't sort that EPA WELL 108S. I need it

I have an app for iOS that uses Core Data to save and retrieve data. How would I fetch data sorted by a field of NSString type in natural sort order ? Right now the result is: 100_title 10_title 1_title I need: 1_title 10_title 100_title You can use localizedStandardCompare: as selector in the sort descriptor for the Core Data fetch request, for example NSSortDescriptor *titleSort = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"title" ascending:YES selector:@selector(localizedStandardCompare:)]; [fetchRequest setSortDescriptors:[titleSort]]; Swift 3: let titleSort = NSSortDescriptor(key: "title",

I have this array : var columnArray = ['columnNumber1','columnNumber6','coulmnNumber7','columnNumber11','columnNumber12']; If I do columnArray.sort(); , it gives me : columnArray: ['columnNumber1','columnNumber11','coulmnNumber12','columnNumber6','columnNumber7'] How can I sort it correctly? Try like this: arr = arr.sort(function(a, b) { return +/\d+/.exec(a)[0] - +/\d+/.exec(b)[0]; }); Edit: Fixed it works now, it had a couple errors: http://jsbin.com/iwejik/1/edit columnArray.sort(function(a,b) { return parseInt(a.match(/\d+/)[0],10) - parseInt(b.match(/\d+/)[0],10); }); demo There is a npm

Is it possible to sort multiple dimensional array by multiple columns using natural sort in PHP? Here is an example. Suppose I have a 2D array of data, e.g., $array[1]['Name'] = 'John'; $array[1]['Age'] = '20'; $array[1]['Code'] = 'ABC 12'; $array[2]['Name'] = 'John'; $array[2]['Age'] = '21'; $array[2]['Code'] = 'ABC 1'; $array[3]['Name'] = 'Mary'; $array[3]['Age'] = '20'; $array[3]['Code'] = 'ABC 10'; I want to sort this array by name (ASC), then by age (DESC), and by code (ASC), all will be sorted naturally. Basically that will be array_multisort with natural sort. I found many solutions
