SOJs Sock Hierarchy Ranking Algorithm Source Code

This code is for the discerning SOJs user who wants to know the intricacies of the SOJs algorithm.

				function sortSocks(s1, s2) {
					if (s1 === s2) return 0;
					if (s1 > s2) return 1;
					return -1;
				}
				
				function rankSocks(socks) {
					so = socks.sort(sortSocks);
					return so;
				}

The algorithm works by sorting a list of socks in descending order, with the most majestic sock first.

Example usage:

var mySocks = ['sock1', 'sock2', 'sock3'];
var rankedSocks = rankSocks(mySocks);
console.log(rankedSocks);
