In this Article we will go through how to sort lines of a text document in the alphabetical order only using single line of code in JavaScript.
This is a one-line JavaScript code snippet that uses one of the most popular ES6 features => Arrow Function.
Let's define this short function:
const sortLines = str => str.split(/\r?\n/).sort().join('\n');
// Reverse the order
const reverseSortedLines = str => str.split(/\r?\n/).sort().reverse().join('\n');
sortLines(`Thaddeus Mullen
Kareem Marshall
Ferdinand Valentine
Hasad Lindsay
Mufutau Berg
Knox Tyson
Kasimir Fletcher
Colton Sharp
Adrian Rosales
Theodore Rogers`);
/* Output */
/*
Adrian Rosales
Colton Sharp
Ferdinand Valentine
Hasad Lindsay
Kareem Marshall
Kasimir Fletcher
Knox Tyson
Mufutau Berg
Thaddeus Mullen
Theodore Rogers
