Articles tries to provide answer to following questions and issues:
- How to sort items-elements of an array in C#
- How to sort values stored in an Array in C#


Explanation of Sorting Elements of an Array in an Array in C#


When a type of elements is stored in array, they can be sorted in the array. For an item to be sortable, there is a requirement. A type in C# (for example int32), implements IComparable interface. IComparable provides capability for a type o be sortable. If we recall systematic hierarchy of .NET, Int32 is also a Class. It is hosted within the System namespace . Therefore, when we refer int32 type, we actually refer System.Int32. Idea behind, we refer a Class. Int32 implements IComparable interface. If we add int32 type values into an array, we can sort them as well. "Sort()" method provides that capability.

"Sort()" method is a static method of Array Class. The array object is provided as parameter to sort() method, and method deals with task. For example:



Array.Sort (VariableName);




Example of Copying An Array in C#


Following example indicates how to sort elements (values of elements ) of an array in C#. Example is console application, and created with Visual Studio 2008.



using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace NS_HRapplication
{
class CL_x
{
static void Main(string [] args)
{

//create a String array variable and provide four places name as values of elements...///
string [] o_arry_placeNames = new string []{"nebraska","arizona","nevada","florida"};

//sort the array...///
Array.Sort(o_arry_placeNames);

//lets verify if our values in array sorted correct...///
foreach (string v_str in o_arry_placeNames)
{
Console.WriteLine(v_str);

}

Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}



In above example, we created a array for string variable storage. Our variable types, elements in array are all string type. System.Sting Class implements IComparable interface. Therefore, we can sort the values alphabetically. In example, we added some place names and sorted array elements alphabetically. We displayed them in console window with a foreach iteration to verify whether sorting worked without issue.

In the reference link below of MSDN, there is a more advanced example of sorting elements of array with sort method overloads.
