How to Sort a Vector in Rust with Examples

We can make use of the sort() method to sort a Vector in Rust Language.

Let's take a look at a few examples:

Example 1: Sort a vector of Numbers

fn main() {

    let mut numbers = vec![15, 22, 37, 13, 91, 32, 42];
    numbers.sort();
    println!("Sorted numbers vector: {:?}", numbers);
    
}

Output:

Sorted numbers vector: [13, 15, 22, 32, 37, 42, 91]

Example 2: Sort a vector of Strings

fn main() {
    let mut cities = vec!["Chicago", "Mumbai", "Paris", "Tokyo", "Sydney"];
    cities.sort();

}

Output:
