Does the Sort operator perform a stable sort?

Nils_Woehler

Hi,

the sort operator uses the Collections.sort() method from Java. From the Java API it says:

This sort is guaranteed to be stable: equal elements will not be reordered as a result of the sort. 

So yes, the sorting is stable.

Best,
Nils
