How to sort array elements in ascending or descending order?

Tweet Share WhatsApp

Answer:

Integer, floating-point, logical, and character arrays are permitted. Floating-point arrays can be complex. For elements of A with identical values, the order of these elements is preserved in the sorted list. When A is complex, the elements are sorted by magnitude, i.e., abs(A), and where magnitudes are equal, further sorted by phase angle, i.e., angle(A), on the interval [−π, π]. If A includes any NaN elements, sort places these at the high end.

B = sort(A,dim) sorts the elements along the dimension of A specified by a scalar dim.
B = sort(...,mode) sorts the elements in the specified direction, depending on the value of mode.
'ascend'
Ascending order (default)
'descend'
Descending order
[B,IX] = sort(A,...) also returns an array of indices IX, where size(IX) == size(A). If A is a vector, B = A(IX). If A is an m-by-n matrix, then each column of IX is a permutation vector of the corresponding column of A, such that
for j = 1:n
B(:,j) = A(IX(:,j),j);
end
If A has repeated elements of equal value, the returned indices preserve the original ordering.
Example:Sort horizontal vector A:
A = [78 23 10 100 45 5 6];
sort(A)
ans =5 6 10 23 45 78 100
