Sorting a hash by value

If the comparison block for sort takes only one parameter, it returns the value to be compared

%h.sort( { $^a.key }   );     # sort hash by keys
%h.sort( { $^a.value } );     # sort hash by value

@list.sort( { $^a.name } );   # sort @list by .name of each element

A block with no explicit parameters has $_ as an implicit parameter

%h.sort( { $_.value } );      # sort hash by value

%h.sort( { .value } );        # use implicit $_
