Array Date Sort is not working

[sainath3]

Hi Team,

Am unable to sort the date.

I have tried:

var arr=['2010-07-12', '2020-07-24'];
arr.sort();
gs.info(arr);

but output is: 

*** Script: 2010-07-12,2020-07-24

Suggest me how to sort the dates.

Requirement is to fetch the latest date.

Hi,

I think your code is working as expected. It sorted your array in an ascending order. If you want to have the array sorted in descending order, you can check the code below.

var arr=['2010-07-12', '2020-07-24'];
arr.sort().reverse();
gs.info(arr);

Let me know if this helps. Thanks!
