Hi,

you are right, but you get an warning:

Argument "0.04%" isn't numeric in numeric comparison (<=>)

the sorting order, in this trivial example, is the same, but who knows what shows up in the real world.

so a numeric compare seems to be the more obvious choice in this case.

of course there are several ways to get rid of the warnings and using numeric comparison.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    You're right. That'll remind me to turn on warnings even for oneliners...
