Re: sorting a hash by keys, according to preference

[dave0]

If you know all of the keys you want to reference, and the order you'd like them in, why not just avoid the sort in the first place?

for my $point ( @{$aoh} ) {
   for my $type ( qw ( start stop step ) ) {
      print "$type = " . $point->{$type} . "\t";
   }
   print "\n";
}

Thanks for the pointers! I was sure it had to be more simple than a Shwartzian Transform...
