Sort an array of objects using Boolean property in JavaScript

Given the JavaScript array containing Boolean values. The task is to sort the array on the basis of Boolean value with the help of JavaScript. There are two approaches that are discussed below:

• Using Array.sort() Method and === Operator
• Using Array.sort() and reverse() Methods

Method 1: Using Array.sort() Method and === Operator

• Use JavaScript Array.sort() method.
• In the Comparison condition, Use === operator to compare the Boolean objects.
• Return 0, 1, and -1 means equal, greater, and smaller respectively depending upon the comparison.

Example: This example implements the above approach. 

Javascript

let arr = [false, true, false, true, false];

function GFG_Fun() {
    arr.sort(function (x, y) {
        return (x === y) ? 0 : x ? -1 : 1;
    });

    console.log("Sorted Array - [" + arr + "]");
}

GFG_Fun();

Output

Sorted Array - [true,true,false,false,false]

Method 2: Using Array.sort() and reverse() Methods

• Use JavaScript Array.sort() method.
• In Comparison condition, Subtract the first element from the second one to compare the objects and return that value.
• Use .reverse() method, If the result is needed to be reversed.

Example: This example implements the above approach. 

Javascript

let arr = [false, true, false, true, false];

function GFG_Fun() {
    arr.sort((a, b) => b - a).reverse();

    console.log("Sorted Array - [" + arr + "]");
}

GFG_Fun();

Output

Sorted Array - [false,false,false,true,true]
