The '''grade up''' primitive is used to get the indices of an array that would sort it in ascending order.


[[Category:Verbs]]
Since grading is not the same as sorting, a general idiom used to sort arrays is <code>{x(<x)}</code> or other equivalent.
[[Category:Operator verbs]]

[[Category:Primitives]]
Grade primitives generally use a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Stable_sorts stable sort], which means that an ascending grade may not always be the inverse of a descending grade.

For numeric arrays:
<pre>
<34 -1 0 67 32767
1 2 0 3 4</pre>

Grading of string arrays largely depends upon the implementation.

For ngn/k(K6), groups by type and sorts each individual group:
<pre>
{x(<x)}("xyz";"a";"k";"j";"apl";"bqn")
("apl"
"bqn"
"xyz"
"a"
"j"
"k")
</pre>
