Hey,
is there a way to use the guile's sort function to efficiently sort
uniform vectors?
To make it more tangible, I would the operation
(sort #u32(321 524 53 324 65 76 47 9288 56) <)
to return something of more value than (wrong-type-arg) ;]

regards
M.

Guile has ‘stable-sort’, which operates on both lists and vectors, but
not on uniform vectors.

However, it could easily be changed to operate on generalized vectors,
and would thus cover uniform vectors, bytevectors, strings, qetc. in
addition to vectors.

Would you like to work on it?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
