// Go's `sort` package implements sorting for builtins // and user-defined types. We'll look at sorting for // builtins first. package main import ( "fmt" "sort" ) func main() { // Sort methods are specific to the builtin type; // here's an example for strings. Note that sorting is // in-place, so it changes the given slice and doesn't // return a new one. strs := []string{"c", "a", "b"} sort.Strings(strs) fmt.Println("Strings:", strs) // An example of sorting `int`s. ints := []int{7, 2, 4} sort.Ints(ints) fmt.Println("Ints: ", ints) // We can also use `sort` to check if a slice is // already in sorted order. s := sort.IntsAreSorted(ints) fmt.Println("Sorted: ", s) }
