Thanks

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

HTH,

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...
as they have show and tell with source code. Granted it is java, but
you can translate.

bubble_sort == bad

Yes! The market for Science books is large.
As large as religious books. They are different,
but the brains are the same.

These guys need to rewrite their fake-science papers into
fiction novels:

Science Confirms U.S. Scientists Lie More Than Any Other Scientists

By Casey Hendrickson

Monday, November 22, 2010

Picture

Anyone with the IQ above your basic fecal speck knows
that global warming no longer exists, and never was the
result of man-made activity. False science doesn't end
there, however.

While a large volume of false scientific information is
distributed in the United States, the problem is much
more severe than we imagined.

As it turns out, you are far more likely to be given
inaccurate (or fabricated) scientific data by American
scientists, than any other group of scientists in the
world.

Physorg.com:

"US scientists are significantly more likely to publish
fake research than scientists from elsewhere, finds a
trawl of officially withdrawn (retracted) studies,
published online in the Journal of Medical Ethics."

http://www.physorg.com/news/2010-11-scientists-significantly-publish...

Hmmm ... how very interesting.

I remember being told in high school that scientists
don't make that much money. Times have changed, and
science is big business now. Have you ever wondered why
scientists do the stupid studies they do? It's because
they get money for doing them. Even though we already
know kids who drink more than four sodas per day tend to
bounce off of walls, we'll study it anyway to get the
money.

Not only are US scientists more likely to publish false
data than anyone in the world, but they are more likely
to be repeat offenders. They are also more likely to have
their work cited by other publications.

This explains so much, doesn't it?

US scientists, in an effort to make money, lie about
their scientific findings (ala climategate). This false
data is picked up by numerous publications (NY Times, LA
Times, WaPo, etc.), and is reprinted as if it were fact.
Now millions of Americans are convinced of some
scientific finding that is not rooted in fact. To make
matters worse, when the data is proven to be false (or
fabricated) and the findings are retracted, there is no
such retraction in the publications that helped
distribute that false data.

Finally, a study worthy of a government grant.

Story educates and heals. Story entertains through drama,
movie, song and dance. Story motivates. History is story.
News is story. Everyone and everything has a story. Story
is King.

Peer validation is pretty much political and corrupt
these days, so scientific objectivity bites the dust.
