Sorts the rows of the current matrix by the elements of its first column in ascending order.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Overloads Sub SortRows() 
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As Matrix
 
instance.SortRows()
C# 
public void SortRows()
C++/CLI 
public:
void SortRows(); 

Example

The following example uses the SortRows method to sort a matrix and then synchronizes a second matrix using the ReorderRows method.
