sort with custom `cmp_fn`
In Go, I can easily sort a slice with something like:
The portion
then it will sort to:
Looking at the doc page for algorithm.sort, it appears to take a
The portion
func(i, j int) bool { return my_slice[i][2] < my_slice[j][2] } is an anonymous function (lambda) that is used to determine sort order. Therefore, that quick one-liner (3-liner for readibility) will sort based on the value of index 2. As a result, if my_slice starts as:[ [1, 2, 1], [2, 3, 9], [3, 4, 5] ]then it will sort to:
[ [1, 2, 1], [3, 4, 5], [2, 3, 9] ]Looking at the doc page for algorithm.sort, it appears to take a
cmp_fn arg (like the above anonymous function). Does anybody have sample code I can peek at for how to actually implement? ...tiny brain is confused.
