I am doing a regex match that returns a IEnumarable , if i string join the result is like this:
“894215763”, How do i order this so i can loop this IEnumarable in order like this:
“123456789”
Hi @Jay_Chacko - Could you please let us know, your Regex text and Regex pattern? In the meanwhile, i will take a look on how to sort IEn.
@Jay_Chacko - Here you go…
StrArray = IEnRegex.Select(Function (x) x.toString).toArray
StrArray is of Variable type String Array.
Then Use InvokeMethod.
Note: This method works, but I am trying to do it one step.
Hi @Jay_Chacko
to do all the all the operation in one-step u can try this in a writeline activitiy to get the output
String.Join(“”,matches_var.OrderBy(Function (e) e).ToArray)
Where matches_var is output of matches activitiy

Happy Automation 
instead of x can u try with x.value?
I am yet to try to try that
it kinda works , but getting the return like this , “Sorted: 013689”, original was :“8,9,10,6,3”. It split 10 to 0 and 1, my regex pattern is simple digit “(\d)”
@Jay_Chacko - Sorry I didn’t get you. I tested the above sort against my matches and it works perfectly…
Before sort(With String.Join)
After sort
Could you please share your input Regex text?

Regex pattern: “(\d+)”
result: (8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(8)(9)(9)(9)(9)(13)(9)(9)(9)(9)(9)(10)(10)(16)(10)(10)
Now sort it : lowest number to highest
i replace the bracket with pipes so i can split the string on correct number
String.Join(“”,folderTreeSplit).Replace(“(”,“|”).Replace(“)”,“|”)
folderTreeSplitStringJoin.Split("|"c) = string array
Invoke sort is not sorting it , getting -: ,10,10,10,10,13,16,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,8,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9,9
@Jay_Chacko - Please check this regex link…We can take the groups and sort it…
I am looking at it…

Hi @prasath17
U can check this
String.Join(“”,matches_var.ToArray().OrderBy(Function(e) e.Value.ToString))
I think it will too work
please refer @Jay_Chacko
@Jay_Chacko - Here you go 
XAML Image:
Regex Pattern used: “\ (\ d+\ )” - purpose added space just to show here…you can ignore
ArrItems = IEnRegex.Select(Function (x) Cint(x.tostring.Replace(“(”,“”).Replace(“)”,“”))).toArray
ArrayItems is Int32Array
