'Sort' is not a member of 'vector' type error

[Anil Varma]

Hello Fellow Members

I am trying to sort a simple vector of double values.

                vector close2;
                vector close1;
                // Step [1]: Calculate simple return of Close prices
                close2.CopyRates(gSymbol,gTimeFrame,COPY_RATES_CLOSE,1+gIdx,calWindow); // 1+PrevBar
                close1.CopyRates(gSymbol,gTimeFrame,COPY_RATES_CLOSE,gIdx,calWindow);           // PrevBar (gIdx)

                // In decimal points 0.10 = 10%
                vector simpleReturn = (close1 - close2) / close2;
                
                // Vector::Sort() --> [simpleReturn.Sort();] 'Sort' is not a member of 'vector' type error
                simpleReturn.Sort();

Returns -> 

'Sort' is not a member of 'vector' type error

Search on Forum did not help much.

Please help to resolve.

Invalid call. See example Sort - Manipulations - Matrix and Vector Methods - MQL5 Reference

Old issue, I will try to have more information from MQ.

Thanks Alain

It still seems not implemented along with few other function(s) for matrix & vector.

This is really frustrating to see documentation & tries to use them. And end up with information they are not yet implemented.

@amrali has rightly pointed it out.

Hi William

Can you please highlight what is wrong in the 'invalid call'

Please don't resurrect old topic. There is nothing more to say for now. Sort() function for vector/matrix is not implemented. You have to use something else.

If I can get more information I will post them.

                simpleReturn.Sort();

If you clicked on the reference, you would have seen the call requires two parameters.

I would like to ask for the ability to derive from built-in types vector, matrix and complex.

Such that we coders/programmers can change, add, overwrite, overload the underlying object. Just like we can with MqlXXX structs.

Would make these types much more useful.

As a temp solution for this problem (until vector.sort() is added to MQL):

Use: 

void QuickSort(vector &v);
