list.sort([compareFunction])

Sorts the elements of a list in place and returns the list. The API is the same as the native JavaScript Array.prototype.sort API.

import {DefineList} from "can";

const accounts = new DefineList([
    { name: "Savings", amount: 20.00 },
    { name: "Checking", amount: 103.24 },
    { name: "Kids Savings", amount: 48155.13 }
]);

accounts.sort((a, b) => {
    if (a.name < b.name) {
        return -1;
    } else if (a.name > b.name){
        return 1;
    } else {
        return 0;
    }
});

console.log(accounts[0].name); //-> "Checking"
console.log(accounts[1].name); //-> "Kids Savings"
console.log(accounts[2].name); //-> "Savings"
