There is a built-in function to sort a list, yes. But the mechanism by
which to sort the list is, in this case, up to you to provide. This works:
my @sorted = sort {
$a->[0] <=> $b->[0]
} @employees;
Thank you.
However, is this scalable if, for example list is more than 5000 ?
(ie. obtain data from ldap which we can not ask data provider to sort
the entry for us)
