Subject: @ Updated natural comparison/sorting algorithm by Martin Pool
X-Git-Tag: php-4.0RC2~190
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9e9ba7d974333171ecaa57e2c92b0e0ee0dc0b2a;p=php

@ Updated natural comparison/sorting algorithm by Martin Pool
@ <mbp@humbug.org.au>. (Andrei)

Martin Pool updated the natural comparison/sort algorithm so that fractions
compare more "naturally", e.g. 1.002 < 1.1.
