The following script produces unexpected results.. can someone identify why the sorted order is reversed?
- W
----------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
my(%test,$j)=();
$test{'2007030110300020070301133000'}++;
$test{'2007030110300020070301143000'}++;
foreach $j (sort{$a<=>$b}(keys(%test))) {
print "Key: $j\n";
}
------- results ------
[root@localhost]# perl test_sorting.pl
Key: 2007030110300020070301143000
Key: 2007030110300020070301133000

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
