I need to sort some objects according to their contents (in fact according to one of their properties, which is NOT the key and may be duplicated between different objects) .net provides two classes (SortedDictionnary and SortedList), and both are some kind of Dictionaries. The only difference (AFAIK) is that SortedDictionnary uses a bi...
Is there an easy way to add nodes to a WinForms .NET TreeView control where the new nodes being added are inserted at the correct index so the entire list of nodes is sorted alphabetically? Pretty much having the same result as TreeView.Sort(). I have a TreeView that continually grows to a couple hundred nodes. The user can view this Tr...
I've got a list of Python objects that I'd like to sort by an attribute of the objects themselves. The list looks like: >>> ut [<Tag: 128>, <Tag: 2008>, <Tag: <>, <Tag: actionscript>, <Tag: addresses>, <Tag: aes>, <Tag: ajax> ...] Each object has a count: >>> ut[1].count 1L I need to sort the list by number of counts descending. ...
I'm looking for an Objective-C way of sorting characters in a string, as per the answer to this question. Ideally a function that takes an NSString and returns the sorted equivalent. Additionally I'd like to run length encode sequences of 3 or more repeats. So, for example "mississippi" first becomes "iiiimppssss", and then could be s...
Basically I have a setup like the following: Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [nid] => 1 [title] => title1 [uid] => 1 [parent] => 0 [weight] => -15 [name] => name1 [value] => 0 ) [1] => stdClass Object ( [nid] => 2 [title] => title2 [uid] => 1 [parent] => 0 [weight] => -7 [name] => name2 [value] => 100 ) ...
Hi Techies, I recently gave a interview to one of the TOP software company. I was completely stuck with only one question asked by interviewer to me, which was Q. I have a machine with 512 mb / 1 GB RAM and I have to sort a file (XML, or any) of 4 GB size. How will I proceed? What will be the data structure, and which sorting algorith...
I am not a big fan of datasets so I use POCO to return data. I have achieved paging and sorting using custom methods that I create for a POCO type that work on page size and give me a set of the complete POCO collection at a time, I use methods that check for name of the DataItem clicked and sort order to do that sort. Creating such meth...
SOLVED at the bottom of my post. Or more specifically: I have a bunch of FileInfo objects (I need the FileInfo objects to exclude hidden, system and reparse point files). I need to sort FileInfo[] naturally based on their FileInfo.FullName. So FILE_10.ext should come after FILE_2.ext. Luckily the FileInfo[] contains files of only one ...
I have a huge tab separated file which I want to sort on its 2nd column. I need to use the tab character as the field delimiter in cygwin sort. So I need something like this: sort -t \t -k 2,2 in.txt > out.txt But the command prompt evaluates '\t' literally and not as the tab character. Note that I need to do this on a Windows machine...
I need to sort a DataGridView with Natural Sorting (Like in Explorer) so that numbers and text (in the same column) are sorted naturally, and not alphabetically (so that "place 3" comes before "place 20", etc.). I have a DataGridView, where I have set a DataView as DataSource. The DataView contains a DataTable which is created with some ...
Where can I get a decent high-level description of the algorithm used in __merge_without_buffer() in the C++ STL? I'm trying to reimplement this code in the D programming language, with some enhancements. I can't seem to grok what it's doing at the algorithmic level from just reading the STL source code because there are too many low-l...

Part of a programme builds this list, [u'1 x Affinity for war', u'1 x Intellect', u'2 x Charisma', u'2 x Perception', u'3 x Population growth', u'4 x Affinity for the land', u'5 x Morale'] I'm currently trying to sort it alphabetically by the name of the evolution rather than by the number. Is there any way I can do this without just ...
Hi all, I'm looking for an algorithm that sorts strings similar to the way files (and folders) are sorted in Windows Explorer. It seems that numeric values in strings are taken into account when sorted which results in something like name 1, name 2, name 10 instead of name 1, name 10, name 2 which you get with a regular string com...
From the documentation: SortField () constructor public function SortField(name:String = null, caseInsensitive:Boolean = false, descending:Boolean = false, numeric:Object = null) I'm confused on the last part - numeric:Object = null Here is my function: private function createXMLDataProvider():XMLListCollection{ var sort...
Witch CMS(+plugin/module) have the best way to organize content and multiple sorting options for lists? ...
I need a generic container that keeps its elements sorted and can be asked where (at which position) it would insert a new element, without actually inserting it. Does such a container exist in the .NET libraries? The best illustration is an example (container sorts characters by ASCII value, let's assume unicode does not exist): sorte...
Hello! Imagine you have some products, or items, or just anything that you want to see in some order of importance. Like you want in a search engine. Like websites. And you don't know how to sort them. But you have some criteria that give you a clue. You have a bag of criteria, and according to each, you can find a sorting, but you cann...
The environment: I am working in a proprietary scripting language where there is no such thing as a user-defined function. I have various loops and local variables of primitive types that I can create and use. I have two related arrays, "times" and "values". They both contain floating point values. I want to numerically sort the "ti...
