There is an example at zone.ni.com. Search for 'sort 2D'
It takes the 2D array, uses the index Array function to strip the 2D by column
into 2 - 1D arrays. These are sent to the build cluster and the cluster
(a 1D array of cluster of 2 DBLS) is sent to the Sort 1D array.
This output is sent to a for loop that uses the autoindex. Inside the for
is a Cluster to Array function that creates the output 2D.
Not sure how effiecient this is bu
t probably as good or better than any other method
I can think of.
