:: Ord a => [a] -> [a] -package:relude -package:data-ordlist -package:containers -package:hledger-lib -package:extra

The sort function implements a stable sorting algorithm. It is a special case of sortBy, which allows the programmer to supply their own comparison function. Elements are arranged from lowest to highest, keeping duplicates in the order they appeared in the input. The argument must be finite.

Examples

>>> sort [1,6,4,3,2,5]
[1,2,3,4,5,6]

>>> sort "haskell"
"aehklls"

>>> import Data.Semigroup(Arg(..))

>>> sort [Arg ":)" 0, Arg ":D" 0, Arg ":)" 1, Arg ":3" 0, Arg ":D" 1]
[Arg ":)" 0,Arg ":)" 1,Arg ":3" 0,Arg ":D" 0,Arg ":D" 1]

Like nub, but has O(n log n) complexity instead of O(n^2). Code for ordNub and listUnion taken from Niklas Hambüchen's ordnub package.

A right-biased version of ordNub. Example:

>>> ordNub [1,2,1] :: [Int]
[1,2]

>>> ordNubRight [1,2,1] :: [Int]
[2,1]

Remove duplicates but keep elements in order. O(n * log n)

>>> sort [1,6,4,3,2,5]
[1,2,3,4,5,6]

Strip out duplicates

same behavior as nub, but requires Ord and is O(n log n) https://github.com/nh2/haskell-ordnub

The argument must be finite.

O(n log n). Perform a heap sort

As nub, but with O(n*log(n)) behaviour.

Returns an (arbitrary) representative for each list element that occurs more than once. O(n log n).

Remove the first representative for each list element. Thus, returns all duplicate copies. O(n log n). allDuplicates xs == sort $ xs \ nub xs.

Sort a list and remove duplicates. Like deleteAllDuplicates, but trades off laziness and stability for efficiency.

The sort function implements a stable sorting algorithm. It is a special case of sortBy, which allows the programmer to supply their own comparison function.

Sort the list, discarding duplicates.

O(n log n). Sorts and remove repetitions. Equivalent to nub . sort.

> nubSort [1,2,3]
[1,2,3]
> nubSort [3,2,1]
[1,2,3]
> nubSort [3,2,1,3,2,1]
[1,2,3]
> nubSort [3,3,1,1,2,2]
[1,2,3]

Get all elements with more than one occurrence.

For the list of a from the Ord class it builds a sorted in the ascending order list without duplicates.
