sequence of ASCII digits, fall back to comparing the strings as normal.)
- Compare the numeric values of the number specified by the sequence of digits.
(Note that an implementation of this algorithm can easily check this without
accumulating copies of the digits or converting to a number: longer sequences
of digits are larger numbers, equal-length sequences can be sorted
lexicographically.)
accumulating copies of the digits or converting to a number: after skipping
leading zeroes, longer sequences of digits are larger numbers, and
equal-length sequences of digits can be sorted lexicographically.)
- If the numbers have the same numeric value, the one with more leading zeroes
comes first.
