NUMERIC (Array.NUMERIC property)

public static NUMERIC :
Represents numeric sorting instead of string-based sorting. String-based sorting, which is the
default setting, treats numbers as strings when sorting them. For example, string-based sorting
places 10 before 3. A numeric sort treats the elements as numbers so that 3 will be placed
before 10. You can use this constant for the
method. The value of this constant is 16.
