# `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",
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
```
