compareFn Optional

Specifies a function that defines the sort order. If omitted, the typed array elements are sorted according to numeric value.

a

The first element for comparison.

b

The second element for comparison.

A new typed array with the elements sorted in ascending order.

See Array.prototype.toSorted() for more details. This method is not generic and can only be called on typed array instances.

For more examples, see also the Array.prototype.sort() method.

const numbers = new Uint8Array([40, 1, 5, 200]);
const numberSorted = numbers.toSorted();
console.log(numberSorted); // Uint8Array [ 1, 5, 40, 200 ]
// Unlike plain Arrays, a compare function is not required
// to sort the numbers numerically.
console.log(numbers); // Uint8Array [ 40, 1, 5, 200 ]
