iPhone Obj C -- Sorting a Mutable Array of dictionaries -- display a string but sort by value

I have a NSMutableArray with 30 dictionaries inside of it. Each contains a name and a value. I currently have the names so开发者_JAVA技巧rted so that the show in a table view alphabetically. However, I'd like to make a UIButton to give the option of STILL DISPLAYING THE NAMES, but ordered by the value. The value doesn't need to be displayed. Also, where in the .m/.h files would these codes be placed? THANKS!

To be able to help you I need a test data to work with. Let's say your array with data looks like this:

NSMutableArray *aMutableArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:
         [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
          @"A", @"name",
          [NSNumber numberWithInt:6], @"value", nil],
         [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
          @"C", @"name",
          [NSNumber numberWithInt:2], @"value", nil],
         [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
          @"B", @"name",
          [NSNumber numberWithInt:4], @"value", nil], nil];

In this case case here's how you sort it by value:

NSSortDescriptor *aSortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"value" ascending:YES];
[aMutableArray sortUsingDescriptors:[NSArray arrayWithObject:aSortDescriptor]];

As for where to place this code place it wherever you need the reordering to happen (in the implementation [.m] file of course).

HTH and if there will be any questions ask them in the comments.
