Sort Array Values with Accelerate

Written on November 11, 2022

Sort the values in an array by ascending or descending order. Values of the array must be Float or Double.

import Accelerate

var y: [Float] = [8, 3.5, 0, 7, 9, 2, 6, 1]
vDSP.sort(&y, sortOrder: .ascending)

// y becomes [0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.5, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0]

vDSP.sort(&y, sortOrder: .descending)

// y becomes [9.0, 8.0, 7.0, 6.0, 3.5, 2.0, 1.0, 0.0]
