+### **sort**(), **sort**(comparer)
+
+Sorts the elements of a list in-place; altering the list. The default sort is implemented using the quicksort algorithm.
+
+<pre class="snippet">
+var list = [4, 1, 3, 2].sort()
+System.print(list) //> [1, 2, 3, 4]
+</pre>
+
+A comparison function `comparer` can be provided to customise the element sorting. The comparison function must return a boolean value specifying the order in which elements should appear in the list.
+
+The comparison function accepts two arguments `a` and `b`, two values to compare, and must return a boolean indicating the inequality between the arguments. If the function returns true, the first argument `a` will appear before the second `b` in the sorted results.
+
+A compare function like `{|a, b| true }` will always put `a` before `b`. The default compare function is `{|a, b| a < b }`.
+
+<pre class="snippet">
+var list = [9, 6, 8, 7]
+list.sort {|a, b| a < b}
+System.print(list) //> [6, 7, 8, 9]
+</pre>
+
+It is a runtime error if `comparer` is not a function.

 ### **[**index**]** operator
 
 Gets the element at `index`. If `index` is negative, it counts backwards from
