| # `sort` Function | |
| `sort` takes a list of strings and returns a new list with those strings | |
| sorted lexicographically. | |
| The sort is in terms of Unicode codepoints, with higher codepoints appearing | |
| after lower ones in the result. | |
| ## Examples | |
| ``` | |
| > sort(["e", "d", "a", "x"]) | |
| [ | |
| "a", | |
| "d", | |
| "e", | |
| "x", | |
| ] | |
| ``` |
