Sort->sort_byte($array, method : int ($a : int, $b : int) {
return $a <=> $b;
});

});

=head1 Description
C<Sort> provides sorting functions. The sorting algorithm is a stable merge sort.
=head1 Class Methods
=head2 sort_byte
C<static method sort_byte : void ($array : byte[], $comparator : L<Comparator::Int|SPVM::Comparator::Int>, $offset : int = 0, $length : int = -1);>
Sorts the range of the elements of C<byte> $array in-place.
The sorted range is from $offset to the position proceeded by $length.
If the length is less than 0, the length to the end of the string is calculated from the length of the array and the offset.
The L<Comparator::Int|SPVM::Comparator::Int> comparator is used to compare each element.
Exceptions:
$array must be defined.
$offset must be greater than or equal to 0.
$comparator must be defined.
$offset + length must be less than or equal to the length of $elements.
