I've created a couple arrays. arrLocations holds a series of 2-digit country names, arrResults counts how many times each occurs and holds the country name with it's count as see here:

[
  FR: 40,  US: 1511, AU: 82,
  CN: 151, IE: 170,  SG: 108,
  GB: 66,  KR: 52,   JP: 137,
  IN: 45,  BR: 68,   SE: 39,
  ZA: 19,  NL: 19,   BH: 19,
  LU: 3,   CA: 41,   DE: 79,
  ID: 1,   HK: 1
]

My intention is to sort this array by ascending occurrence, I want this:

[
  ID: 1,  HK: 1,  LU: 3,
  BH: 19, NL: 19, ZA: 19,
  ....and so on........
]

However, no matter what way I implement sort, it does absolutely nothing. I even did a test sort on a dumby array and was able to sort it fine, but this array I cannot sort.

Here is what I have so far:

var geoip = require('geoip-lite')
const fs = require('fs')
const { Console } = require('console')
let data = fs.readFileSync('./ip_new.txt')
let iplocation = ""
let arrLocations = []
let arrResults = []

let arrIP = data.toString().split("\r\n")

for(let item of arrIP){
iplocation = geoip.lookup(item)
arrLocations.push(iplocation.country)
}

for(let item of arrLocations){
if (item in arrResults){
    arrResults[item]++
}
else{
    arrResults[item]=1
}
}

arrResults.sort()
console.log(arrResults)
