may not be the prettiest w/ the nested maps, but this works for any number of tiers .. it converts the "1.10.4" to "00001.00010.00004" and sorts that, which will sort properly, and then converts back to strip the leading zeros. (Note the caveat that the
'%05d' might need to be
'%08d' or something.)
use strict;
use warnings;
my @s = ( "1.0", "1.10", "1.2", "3", "2.0.1", "4.1.1.1", "1.0.1", "1.1
+", "1.0.2", "2.0" );
my @t = map { join ".", map { sprintf '%d', $_ } split(/\./,$_) }
sort
map { join ".", map { sprintf '%05d', $_ } split(/\./,$_) }
@s;
print "IN: ", join(" ", @s), "\n";
print "OUT: ", join(" ", @t), "\n";
__END__
IN: 1.0 1.10 1.2 3 2.0.1 4.1.1.1 1.0.1 1.1 1.0.2 2.0
OUT: 1.0 1.0.1 1.0.2 1.1 1.2 1.10 2.0 2.0.1 3 4.1.1.1

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
