Sort array outside method

Question

I have this method:

public static IEnumerable<string> GetWords(string path, Func<string,Boolean> s)
        {
            
            Array.Sort(array, (first, last) => first.Length.CompareTo(last.Length));
        }

I want to get the Array.Sort outside the GetWords method. Is there a simple way to do this?

what exactly do you want, question is not clear – pm100 Feb 05 '22 at 23:19 — pm100, Feb 05 '22 at 23:19
I want to sort "string[] array" outside GetWords method? – timz Feb 05 '22 at 23:27 — timz, Feb 05 '22 at 23:27
sort again or move the sort out of the function – pm100 Feb 05 '22 at 23:27 — pm100, Feb 05 '22 at 23:27

I assume you mean, "I want to sort the result of GetWords, but thats not an Array, its an IEnumerable so I cant use Array.Sort - how do I do that?"

var list = GetWords(....);
var sorted = list.OrderBy(s=>s);

see How to sort an IEnumerable<string>
