Sorting an array with numbers

[careca]

Hi, i just noticed this annoying thing in my music player, in which the files that have numbers are not in sequence, see example attached.

1, 11, 12, 2, 3, 4..

I'm currently using _FileListToArrayRec

Open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

careca,

It is because the elements are strings and so are sorted alphabetically. I suggest adding a leading 0 to the number - then the sort will be as you wish.

There is additional fields for music file like album, track number, artist, year, etc.  You can extract the fields you want add them in your array and sort the way you want.

Thank you for the input and suggestions.

#include <Array.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#include <String.au3>

$aTxt = FileReadToArray("test.txt") ; This is a list of tracks not in order

Local $aNew[UBound($aTxt)][2]
For $i = 0 To UBound($aTxt) - 1
    $aMatch = StringRegExp($aTxt[$i], "\d{1,2}", 1)
    $aNew[$i][0] = StringFormat("%02i", $amatch[0])
    $aNew[$i][1] = $aTxt[$i]
Next

_ArraySort($aNew)
_ArrayColDelete($aNew, 0)
_ArrayDisplay($aNew)
