I have a group of shapes in the Cartesian space, each shape has a maximum X value and a minimum X value. I would like to sorting them based on their maximum X value, so if the maximum X of the shape (a) is bigger than all the other maximum X of the other shapes, then shape (a) comes first.
Please, how can I describe it in formal academic writing?
Given an unordered list of shapes where a (sub) i is the maximum X value of the i th shape, perform the operation as shown below. ( In line (3) invert the comparison operator so the larger elements, not the smaller ones) will come first in the list.
