Re: [PD] sorting a 2 dimension list

Please help, I can not figure this out:

How can I sort a multidimensional list by it's first element? I know of a way using [coll] (cyclone) but from my experience, [coll] is unstable.

Example : how do I sort the following list [[2,3],[7,4],[5,3],[6,7]] ? The result would be : [[2,3],[5,3],[6,7],[7,4]]

I'd suggest the Georg Holzmann's wonderful PDContainer externals for this, they are in CVS and provide various very useful data types. In your case, you can directly use "h_list" like in attached patch.
