qsort

Sorts a singly dimensioned array.

Prototype

	procedure qsort (
		value [*] : numeric   
	)

Arguments

A singly dimensioned array of two or more numeric values to be sorted.

Description

This procedure sorts its input array in ascending order. If the input array contains a coordinate variable, then the values of the coordinate variable are repositioned relative to their corresponding array value. Missing values are sorted to either end of the array based on their actual value (ignoring missing values is not supported).
