 * SUMMARY: Testing |sort()| method of an Array. 
 *          Sorts the elements of an array. If compareFunction is not supplied, 
 *          elements are sorted by converting them to strings and comparing strings 
 *          in lexicographic ("dictionary" or "telephone book," not numerical) order. 
 *          For example, "80" comes before "9" in lexicographic order, but in a numeric 
 *          sort 9 comes before 80. 
 * 
 *          Syntax: sort(compareFunction) 
 *
 *          Parameters: compareFunction - Specifies a function that defines 
 *          the sort order. If omitted, the array is sorted lexicographically 
 *          (in dictionary order) according to the string conversion of each element.
