# Package for ordering of Go values
[][godoc]
[][travis]
[](https://coveralls.io/github/ncabatoff/go-seq?branch=master)
This package is intended to allow ordering (most) values via reflection,
much like go-cmp allows comparing values for equality.
This is helpful when trying to write `Less()` methods for sorting structures.
Provided all the types in question are supported, you can simply define it
as follows:
```go
import "github.com/ncabatoff/go-seq/seq"
type (
MyType struct {
a int
b string
}
MyTypeSlice []MyType
)
func (m MyTypeSlice) Less(i, j int) bool { return seq.Compare(m[i], m[j]) < 0 }
```
Noteable unsupported types include the builtin `complex` type, channels,
functions, and maps with non-string keys. Pointers can be ordered if their
underlying types are orderable.
