How to sort strings descending with TypeScript?
To sort strings descending with TypeScript, we can compare strings with comparison operators.
For instance, we write
const sorted: string[] = values.sort((one, two) => (one > two ? -1 : 1));
to call sort
with a callback to compare strings one
and two
.
We return -l to reverse their order if one
is bigger than two
.
Otherwise, we return 1 to sort them in ascending order.
one
and two
are both entries in values
being iterated through.
