JavaScript对象数组排序实例方法浅析

//Sort
alphabetically and ascending:
var
myarray=["Bob",
"Bully",
"Amy"]
myarray.sort()
//Array
now bees ["Amy", "Bob", "Bully"]

//Sort
numerically and ascending:
var
myarray=[25, 8, 7, 41]
myarray.sort(function(a,b){return
a - b}) //Array
now bees [7, 8, 25, 41]

//by函数接受一个成员名字符串做为参数
//并返回一个可以用来对包含该成员的对象数组进行排序的比较函数
var
by = function(name){
return
function(o,
p){
var
a, b;
if
(typeof
o === "object"
&& typeof
p === "object"
&& o && p) {
a
= o[name];
b
= p[name];
if
(a === b) {
return
0;
}
if
(typeof
a === typeof
b) {
return
a < b ? -1 : 1;
}
return
typeof 
a < typeof
b ? -1 : 1;
}
else
{
throw
("error");
}
}
}

var
employees=[]
employees[0]={name:"Gee",
age:32, retiredate:"March
12, 2014"}
employees[1]={name:"Edward",
age:17, retiredate:"June
2, 2023"}
employees[2]={name:"Christine",
age:58, retiredate:"December
20, 2036"}
employees[3]={name:"Sarah",
age:62, retiredate:"April
30, 2020"}

employees.sort(by("age"));

//by函数接受一个成员名字符串和一个可选的次要比较函数做为参数
//并返回一个可以用来包含该成员的对象数组进行排序的比较函数
//当o[age]
和 p[age] 相等时，次要比较函数被用来决出高下
var
by = function(name,minor){
return
function(o,p){
var
a,b;
if(o
&& p && typeof
o === 'object'
&& typeof
p ==='object'){
a
= o[name];
b
= p[name];
if(a
=== b){
return
typeof 
minor === 'function'
? minor(o,p):0;
}
if(typeof
a === typeof
b){
return
a <b ? -1:1;
}
return
typeof 
a < typeof
b ? -1 : 1;
}else{
thro("error");
}
}
}
employees.sort(by('age',by('name')));
