	Is there an easy (or hard) way to sort an Array in Crystal Syntax?

	probably any sort algorithm you want, but there are limits to the arrays, only 1d. Can use loops and swap values to sort. something like this should swap: if arr[x]<arr[y] then ( temp := arr[y]; arr[y] := arr[x]; arr[x] := temp; ); look up loops, and you will probably want a flag that a swap has occurred, so when none are performed, you know that you are done.

	Bubble sort probably would work. I haven't done one in a few years (okay, a lot of years).

	See my PPT presentations using bubble sort algorithm at http://www.sfarea.org/12201.html For arrays under 445 rows, see Nov 2008 meeting (easy) For arrays from 1 to 1000 rows due to 99,999 loop limitations, see Oct 2010 meeting (hard but rigorous) Edited by joelum - 11 Nov 2010 at 11:02am
