I have a NSMutableArray.

It contains NSIndexPaths which itself a NSUInteger array.

Array looks like this

[ 

 (NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 0, 0],   
 (NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [2, 1, 1],  
 (NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 1, 0],  
 (NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 0, 1],

. .

]

Now i want to sort the NSMutableArray based on NSIndexPath integer array values. And the result should be following like this.

[ 

(NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 0, 0],  
(NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 0, 1],   
(NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [1, 1, 0],   
(NSIndexPath xxxxxxx) 3 indexes [2, 1, 1],

..

]

How to do it?

Assuming your NSMutableArray is called indexPaths, you could do:

[indexPaths sortUsingSelector:@selector(compare:)];

Other than Maddy's suggestion, you might try using a custom NSSortDescriptor that applies the specific sorting rules you want.
