Hello,
I have this sample data:
how can I sort these entries so that field 2 will be sorted with "*" first followed by numbers where 6 and 06 fill follow each other?
When I try :
the data is sorted numerically yet the field 2 with "*" are not all grouped together.
If I try
then all the "*" in field 2 are properly grouped but 06 and 6 are considered different.
Can you help?
Thanks.
Hi all.
I have 2 files like this:
f1
A 10
B 80
C 9
f2
A 11
B 700
C 10
What I want is the concatenation of the two files sorted by name (alphabetically) and size (numerically), so the result should be like this:
F3 (cat f1 f2 sorted)
A 10
A 11
B 80
B 700 (2 Replies)

A basic query. In the example file below, I want to sort by column 1 and then by column 2 numerically.

Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitReturnSort(3)User Contributed Perl DocumentatioPerl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitReturnSort(3)NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitReturnSort - Behavior of "sort" is not defined if called in scalar context.
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
The behavior of the builtin "sort" function is not defined if called in scalar context. So if you write a subroutine that directly
"return"s the result of a "sort" operation, then you code will behave unpredictably if someone calls your subroutine in a scalar context.
This Policy emits a violation if the "return" keyword is directly followed by the "sort" function. To safely return a sorted list of
values from a subroutine, you should assign the sorted values to a temporary variable first. For example:
sub frobulate {
return sort @list; # not ok!
@sorted_list = sort @list;
return @sort # ok
}
KNOWN BUGS
This Policy is not sensitive to the "wantarray" function. So the following code would generate a false violation:
sub frobulate {
if (wantarray) {
return sort @list;
}
else{
return join @list;
}
}
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
CREDITS
This Policy was suggested by Ulrich Wisser and the <http://iis.se> team.
