Here is an example of how to use `vector-sort` from a typed/racket program:

#lang typed/racket
(require/typed racket/vector
  [vector-sort (-> (Vectorof Any) (-> Any Any Boolean) (Vectorof Any))])

(define (compare x y)
  (if (and (real? x) (real? y))
      (< x y)
      (error 'compare "expected two real numbers, got: ~a ~a" x y)))

(vector-sort (vector 3 1 5 2) compare)
