[Justin To]

How does one implement a bubble sort algorithm for a hash?

Thanks

One does not as hashes are unordered and thus not sortable.

HTH,

Ah, I see! Thanks

Well if the keys can be ordered (e.g. are Comparable), the hash can be
sorted by keys. If the values can be ordered, the hash can be sorted by
values. Which you do depends on your requirements.

If you want to write your own sort, you should know that bubble sorts
are deprecated. To get a good view of types of sorting algorithms, try
looking at http://www.cs.ubc.ca/spider/harrison/Java/sorting-demo.html
as they have show and tell with source code. Granted it is java, but
you can translate.
