array.sort((a,b)=>a-b)) the a, b arguments parameters

array.sort((a,b)=>a-b))

when I use the sort() method to numbers array, what kind of rules do they use to pick a and b from the numbers array?

when I log the a and b in the console, it seems to show array[1] as b, array[0] as a and so on, but when the array is different, it shows different rule.

Is there any way to see how sort()method pick the arguments from the numbers array?

array will be like [2,20,60,300,1000] or longer.

Thank you.

The sort function is a native function, it means that it is implemented by the browser javascript engine in language X ( c++ or java usually ) and you cannot edit or modify them.

If you want a custom sort function you need to write your own or find one that fits your needs.

Why you need to know how the sort function manage the given array?
