Hi all, I am having difficulties to understand how R sort strings:
If I do
R) sort(c(X.,X0B))
[1] X. X0B
So for me, as far as lexicographic order is concerned I can add whatever to
the end, the order will remain the same, but :
R) sort(c(X.Z,X0B.Z))
[1] X0B.Z X.Z
Can somebody give me a trick

I don't *think* it's version specific, but rather it depends on your
(still unstated) locale, as the documentation goes to great lengths to
point out. Change that and you might see different behaviors.

This comes from ?locale and reads there

I don't know about 2.12.2 but for 2.12.0 I get:
R.version
_
Ok I have :
R) str(R.Version())
List of 13
$ platform : chr x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
$ arch : chr x86_64
$ os: chr linux-gnu
$ system: chr x86_64, linux-gnu
$ status: chr
$ major : chr 2
$ minor : chr 12.2
$ year : chr
It seems OS-dependent. I got different results when trying it on windows
xp and Redhat linux.
R.version

arch x86_64
os linux-gnu
system x86_64, linux-gnu

Hi.
Try this
Sorry, just made a mistake. This is the result from windows xp.

[1] X. X0B
sort(c(X.Z,X0B.Z))
[1] X.Z X0B.Z
R.version

Yes, it seems. I tried it on my local windows xp and redhat linux
server, and got different results. Hope it will be fixed in the future
versions. Maybe we should keep alert to check whether the results are
consistent when
