Another way to do this, besides what’s been suggested, is to make a new numeric array that maps old indexes to sorted indexes. Start it out as the identity (a[i] = i), then sort it using a compare function that compares the ints mapped into your original int array. Then use the sorted index mapping to renumber your original arrays. —Jens
