Sorting objects

Learn Sorting objects in CoffeeScript with a construct-specific explanation, a unique example, a practical boundary, and a mastery check.

12 min read • Advanced

Sorting objects is an atomic CoffeeScript topic inside Patterns & Practical Code. The example below uses the actual construct named by the lesson rather than a generic placeholder.

Focus on what Sorting objects changes: the input, binding, control path, object state, collection, runtime effect, or language contract. Then alter one value and verify that the behavior changes for a reason specific to this feature.

Topic-specific example

coffeescript-08-09-sorting-objects.coffee
coffeescript Try It Live
items=[{score:8},{score:3}]
items.sort (a,b)->a.score-b.score
console.log items
Edge case / engineering note

Check the input collection shape, whether the operation mutates or returns a new value, and what happens for an empty collection.
