Standard sorting functions in SML?

Question

Are there standard sorting functions in SML? The documentation on the Internet is so scarce I couldn\'t find any.

Answer 1

How about this for sorting a list? You could always use reverse to get the reverse.

- fun sort(L) =
   if L=[] then []
   else if tl(L)=[] then L
   else merge(sort(take(L)), sort(skip(L)));
 val sort = fn : int list -> int list
