> The problem is though isthat it only takes the first two characters into consideration when it sorts it, so when I add numbers like 1, 17, 129, etc the 129 appears before the 17 in the list.
Yuck. So it does, even in a linear list, even with numbers and no alpha characters.
How do you get it to go wrong? Here's what I get:
t = [1,17,129] put t -- [1, 17, 129] sort t put t -- [1, 17, 129]
t = [129,1,17] put t -- [129, 1, 17] sort t put t -- [1, 17, 129]
