sort by number...

[David Gilden]

Good day,

keys look like: Dowda_23241506142001

This is wrong, but not sure how the syntax is,

Where are $a,$b coming from, I thought of a sub, but how do assign $a, $b

foreach my $key  (sort { /_(\d+)$/; $a <=> $b  } (keys %subjects)) {
#  /_(\d+)$/  grabs the number at the end of the string,

what about:

foreach my $key  (sort { s/_(\d+)$/$1/; $a <=> $b  } (keys %subjects)) {

Thanks for your help on this.

Dave
