I am not versed in C but calling built-in JavaScript method .sort() sorts by Unicodes, more precisely UTF-16. It will sort strings in an array by their first letters according to the Unicode table.

Here is more info.

Different javascript engines use different sort algorithms. Firefox uses merge sort, whereas Chrome and node use TimSort, which is Python’s sorting algorithm. It’s not guaranteed to be a stable sort either.
