How to sort an array in Swift

Question

I want the Swift version of this code:

NSArray *sortedNames = [names sortedArrayUsingSelector:@selector(localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare:)];

Answer 1

If you want to sort your array in ascending order then use below syntax:

var arrayName = sorted(arrayName, <)

as the sorted() is the predefined function in swift and < is used to indicate that the array should be sorted in ascending order. If you want to sort the array in descending order then simply replace < with > as I have shown below:

var arrayName = sorted(arrayName, >)
