In Perl, we can sort an array with the sort()
method. It takes a single parameter, the array that needs to be sorted.
sort(arr)
arr
: This is the array we want to sort.
It returns a sorted array.
# create arrays@arr1 = (1, 5, 2, 4, 3);@arr2 = ("e", "c", "a", "d", "b");@arr3 = ("Java", "Python", "Perl", "C");# print arrays before sortprint "Before Sort: \n\@arr1 = @arr1\n\@arr2 = @arr2\n\@arr3 = @arr3";# sort the arrays@r1 = sort(@arr1);@r2 = sort(@arr2);@r3 = sort(@arr3);# print arrays againprint "\nAfter Sort: \n\@arr1 = @r1\n\@arr2 = @r2\n\@arr3 = @r3\n";
sort()
method. The results were stored in variables @r1
, @r2
, and @r3
.
