Question

I am trying to sort an array of prices from low to high. I have it working but not the way I want it to. Long story short, the sorter is putting numbers in order like this:
100
10900
200
290

instead of sorting like this

100
200
290
10900

here is my code I am doing this with.

-(void)filterPriceLowHigh {
    NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor;
    sortDescriptor = [[[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"ListPrice"
        ascending:YES] autorelease];
    NSArray *sortDescriptors = [NSArray arrayWithObject:sortDescriptor];
    NSArray *sortedArray;
    sortedArray = [app.vehiclesArrayToDisplay
        sortedArrayUsingDescriptors:sortDescriptors];
    [app.vehiclesArrayToDisplay removeAllObjects];
    [app.vehiclesArrayToDisplay addObjectsFromArray:sortedArray];
}

Could someone tell me what I need to do here?
thanks in advance.

Create the sort descriptor like this:

sortDescriptor = [NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"ListPrice"
                                               ascending:YES
                                              comparator:^(id obj1, id obj2) {
    return [obj1 compare:obj2 options:NSNumericSearch];
}];
