I am bringing one short question at the first and after that I will presenet the larger problem: answers may be related to use of Ordering or SortBy but I think they are not useful to the second question:
1- I have a list with these elements:
list={1/2 (1 + Sqrt[5]), 1, 1, 1/2 (1 - Sqrt[5]), 0}; I want to sort them with
Sort[list]; I see the bellow result:
Which is incorrect, because N[1/2 (1 - Sqrt[5])]= -0.6, However I can write Sort[N[list]] but I need to have the exact numbers, not their approximate values (I mean that I need 1/2 (1 - Sqrt[5]) instead of -0.6).
2-If we have a matrix same as here:
matrix = {{1, 0, 1, 0, 0}, {0, 1, 1, 1, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 0, 0}}; with this code:
{evals, evecs} = Eigensystem[matrix]; sortedvalues = SortBy[Transpose[{evals, evecs}], First]; (I can't add Less in order to sort evals and corresponded evecs)
Also, or by
{\[CurlyEpsilon], \[Psi]} = Eigensystem[matrix]; {\[CurlyEpsilon], \[Psi]} = {\[CurlyEpsilon][[#]],\[Psi][[#]]} &@Ordering[\[CurlyEpsilon]] Ordering is not able to sort and recognize the magnitude of 1/2 (1 - Sqrt[5])!!!!
