[plug] [Perl] sorign arrays based on scalar value

[Patrick Tehvand]

'ello all,
I sent this to the SLPWA list by mistake...

I've got another perl question,
I would like to sort in decending nemerical order based on $id
This is what I have.

sub resort() {
   #Sort everthing out into numerical order
   my @final;
   my $inputfile=$_[0];
   open (THING,"<$inputfile");
   my @sortinput=<THING>;
   close THING;
      for $input(@sortinput) {
      chop ($input);
      ($id,$title,$words)=split(/\|/,$input);

      @final = ____some sorting stuff___

      open (RESORT,">$inputfile");
      for $line(@final) {
	print RESORT "$line";
      }
      close RESORT;
      return 0;
}
}

Cheers
Patrick
