Sorting Nested JSON Objects in JavaScript - Encountering Unexpected Output
I'm performance testing and I've encountered a strange issue with I'm trying to sort an array of nested JSON objects based on a property within a deeper level of the structure. Specifically, each object in my array has a `user` field, which contains an object with a `details` field, and I want to sort the array based on the `age` property found inside `details`. However, I'm encountering unexpected results where the sorted output doesn't reflect the correct order. Here's my current code: ```javascript const users = [ { user: { details: { age: 25, name: 'Alice' }}}, { user: { details: { age: 22, name: 'Bob' }}}, { user: { details: { age: 30, name: 'Charlie' }}}, { user: { details: { age: 28, name: 'David' }}}, ]; users.sort((a, b) => { return a.user.details.age - b.user.details.age; }); console.log(users); ``` When I run this code, the sorted output looks correct in the console. However, when I try to access the sorted users in a subsequent function to render them on the page, it seems to revert to the original order. I’ve also confirmed that no other parts of my code are modifying the `users` array afterwards. I've tried using `JSON.stringify()` to check changes after sorting, and I can see that the array is sorted correctly there. I’ve also checked my render function, which uses `map()` to create a list of user names. Could there be a scope issue or something else going on that causes the rendered output to display the original order? Any insights on how to properly sort and maintain this order in subsequent operations would be greatly appreciated! This issue appeared after updating to Javascript 3.9. Any advice would be much appreciated. My team is using Javascript for this web app. How would you solve this?
