Integer sort

integer-sort · version 1.0.0 · Numbers & math · free, no key needed

Stable-sort canonical signed base-10 integer strings using BigInt.

Use when you need to: integer sort · sort integer strings · order integers.

Supported

• integer sort
• sort integer strings
• order integers

Not supported

• locale sort
• floats
• natural sort of mixed tokens

Behavior

• Inputs are canonical signed base-10 integer strings matching /^-?(0|[1-9][0-9]*)$/.
• Leading zeros, plus signs, spaces, decimals, exponents, hex, empty strings, and -0 are rejected.
• At most 256 digits excluding the sign. Computation uses BigInt. JSON BigInt is never returned.
• Canonical form is unchanged; 0 is "0". Returned strings are the original canonical inputs.
• values is an array of canonical integer strings with at most 10000 items.
• order is "asc" (default) or "desc". Unknown order values are rejected.
• Equal values keep their original order (stable sort).

Input

• values (array of string, required): max items 10000
• order (one of "asc", "desc", optional)

Output

• values (array of string, required)

Limits

• max integer digits: 256
• max items: 10000

Example

Request input:

{
  "values": [
    "10",
    "-2",
    "10",
    "0"
  ]
}

Response:

{
  "result": {
    "values": [
      "-2",
      "0",
      "10",
      "10"
    ]
  }
}

How to call it
