Common Mistakes to Avoid
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Using default sort for numbered strings
Default lexicographic sort puts "10" before "2" because "1" < "2" character-by-character. Use natural/numeric sort for version numbers, file names, and numbered items.
Ignoring locale for international text
German ä sorts differently in German (after a) vs Swedish (after z). Spanish ch was historically a single letter. Always specify locale for correct alphabetical ordering of non-English text.
