:::::: Yes, it was me who changed 'alphabetical' to 'lexicographical' shortly after the task was introduced because I thought it was more appropriate and I knew that the task would have to be renamed anyway because 'alphabitical' was mis-spelled. Unfortunately, CalmoSoft went ahead and corrected the spelling but ignored the lexicographical aspect. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 18:03, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
:::'''COMPLETELY''' Shouty and Bold my favourite mode of discussion (when the pedant is wrong). "Neither is an alphabet. True," I did not write that ASCII or EBDIC are alphabets I wrote that they are examples of bijections of the characters comprising the alphabet and a subset of the set of integers. In F# "int 'a' binds 97 and "char 97" binds 'a'. Probably utf8 another example of a bijection of the characters comprising the alphabet and a subset of the set of integers. 'a' < 'b' binds true because 97 is less than 98. Using the first method I identified is really sorting integers not "the characters of a string".--[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 14:00, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
