ArrayArray.prototype.toSortedbeginner

Sort Strings Lexicographically

📖 Usage Example
const words = ['cherry', 'apple', 'banana']
words.toSorted()  // → ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']

Call toSorted() without arguments to sort strings alphabetically into a new array.

Array.prototype.toSorted — Strings

Calling toSorted() without a comparator defaults to lexicographic (alphabetical) ordering — the same default as sort.

Implement sortStrings which returns a lexicographically sorted copy of the input string array.

💡 Hints (2)
  • • No comparator needed — toSorted() defaults to lexicographic order
  • • Lexicographic means character-by-character comparison, like a dictionary
