笔者在学习VB中发现利用集合可以进行排序，优化后比冒泡法快得多。下面是完整的函数代码，演示了如何进行数组的升序或降序排列。
Option Explicit
Dim X(100) As Double
Dim y(100) As String
Private Sub Command1_Click() '演示数字排序
Dim a(100) As Double, z(100) As String, i As Long
For i = 0 To 100
a(i) = X(i) '复制数组
z(i) = CStr(X(i)) '转化为字符串数组
Next
MsgBox Join(z, ","), 64, "原始数组" '显示原始顺序
NUMBERSORT X, "up"
For i = 0 To 100
z(i) = CStr(X(i)) '转化为字符串数组
Next
MsgBox Join(z, ","), 64, "按数字升序排序后数组" '显示排序结果
NUMBERSORT a, "down"
For i = 0 To 100
z(i) = CStr(a(i)) '转化为字符串数组
Next
MsgBox Join(z, ","), 64, "按数字降序排序后数组" '显示排序结果
End Sub
Sub NUMBERSORT(ByRef a() As Double, Optional sort As String = "up") '数字排序
Dim min As Long, max As Long, num As Long, first As Long, last As Long, temp As Long, all As New Collection, steps As Long

all.Add a(min)
steps = 1
For num = min + 1 To max
last = all.Count
If a(num) < CDbl(all(1)) Then all.Add a(num), BEFORE:=1: GoTo nextnum '加到第一项
If a(num) > CDbl(all(last)) Then all.Add a(num), AFTER:=last: GoTo nextnum '加到最后一项
first = 1
Do While last > first + 1 '利用DO循环减少循环次数
temp = (last + first) \ 2
