Description

order returns a permutation which rearranges its first argument into ascending or descending order, breaking ties by further arguments. sort.list is the same, using only one argument. See the examples for how to use these functions to sort data frames, etc.

Usage

order(…, na.last = TRUE, decreasing = FALSE, method = c("auto", "shell", "radix"))

sort.list(x, partial = NULL, na.last = TRUE, decreasing = FALSE, method = c("auto", "shell", "quick", "radix"))

Arguments

…

a sequence of numeric, complex, character or logical vectors, all of the same length, or a classed R object.

x

an atomic vector.

partial

vector of indices for partial sorting. (Non-NULL values are not implemented.)

decreasing

logical. Should the sort order be increasing or decreasing? For the "radix" method, this can be a vector of length equal to the number of arguments in …. For the other methods, it must be length one.

na.last

for controlling the treatment of NAs. If TRUE, missing values in the data are put last; if FALSE, they are put first; if NA, they are removed (see ‘Note’.)

method

the method to be used: partial matches are allowed. The default ("auto") implies "radix" for short numeric vectors, integer vectors, logical vectors and factors. Otherwise, it implies "shell". For details of methods "shell", "quick", and "radix", see the help for sort.

Value

An integer vector unless any of the inputs has \(2^{31}\) or more elements, when it is a double vector.

Warning

In programmatic use it is unsafe to name the … arguments, as the names could match current or future control arguments such as decreasing. A sometimes-encountered unsafe practice is to call do.call('order', df_obj) where df_obj might be a data frame: copy df_obj and remove any names, for example using unname.

Details

In the case of ties in the first vector, values in the second are used to break the ties. If the values are still tied, values in the later arguments are used to break the tie (see the first example). The sort used is stable (except for method = "quick"), so any unresolved ties will be left in their original ordering.

Complex values are sorted first by the real part, then the imaginary part.

Except for method "radix", the sort order for character vectors will depend on the collating sequence of the locale in use: see Comparison.

The "shell" method is generally the safest bet and is the default method, except for short factors, numeric vectors, integer vectors and logical vectors, where "radix" is assumed. Method "radix" stably sorts logical, numeric and character vectors in linear time. It outperforms the other methods, although there are caveats (see sort). Method "quick" for sort.list is only supported for numeric x with na.last = NA, is not stable, and is slower than "radix".

partial = NULL is supported for compatibility with other implementations of S, but no other values are accepted and ordering is always complete.

For a classed R object, the sort order is taken from xtfrm: as its help page notes, this can be slow unless a suitable method has been defined or is.numeric(x) is true. For factors, this sorts on the internal codes, which is particularly appropriate for ordered factors.
