I know exactly what assignment this is for so I won't give away too much.
When you're sorting, think about how you're splitting that sort... You're splitting it by the comma, yet you want to sort by date which has a forward-slash delimiting it.
Also, think about what order those details are being placed in birthday.csv it might make things simpler for you...

I want to sort alphabetically on the first field and sort in descending numerical order on the 2nd field. With a normal "sort -r -n" it does this:
abc ||| 5e-05 ||| bla
abc ||| 3 ||| ble
def ||| 1 ||| abc
def ||| 0.2 ||| def
As you can see it ignores the fact that 5e-05 is actually 0.00005... (1 Reply)
