<h1>%TypedArray%.prototype.sort ( _comparefn_ )</h1>
<p>%TypedArray%`.prototype.sort` is a distinct function that, except as described below, implements the same requirements as those of `Array.prototype.sort` as defined in <emu-xref href="#sec-array.prototype.sort"></emu-xref>. Unlike `Array.prototype.sort`, %TypedArray%`.prototype.sort` is not necessarily stable (that is, elements that compare equal do not necessarily remain in their original order). The implementation of the %TypedArray%`.prototype.sort` specification may be optimized with the knowledge that the *this* value is an object that has a fixed length and whose <emu-xref href="#integer-index">integer-indexed</emu-xref> properties are not sparse. The only internal methods of the *this* object that the algorithm may call are [[Get]] and [[Set]].</p>

<p>This function is not generic. The *this* value must be an object with a [[TypedArrayName]] internal slot.</p>
<p>Upon entry, the following steps are performed to initialize evaluation of the `sort` function. These steps are used instead of the entry steps in <emu-xref href="#sec-array.prototype.sort"></emu-xref>:</p>
