/**
- * @class Ext.util.Sorter
- * @extends Object
- * Represents a single sorter that can be applied to a Store
+ * Represents a single sorter that can be applied to a Store. The sorter is used
+ * to compare two values against each other for the purpose of ordering them. Ordering
+ * is achieved by specifying either:
+ *
+ * - {@link #property A sorting property}
+ * - {@link #sorterFn A sorting function}
+ *
+ * As a contrived example, we can specify a custom sorter that sorts by rank:
+ *
+ * Ext.define('Person', {
+ * extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
+ * fields: ['name', 'rank']
+ * });
+ *
+ * Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
+ * model: 'Person',
+ * proxy: 'memory',
+ * sorters: [{
+ * sorterFn: function(o1, o2){
+ * var getRank = function(o){
+ * var name = o.get('rank');
+ * if (name === 'first') {
+ * return 1;
+ * } else if (name === 'second') {
+ * return 2;
+ * } else {
+ * return 3;
+ * }
+ * },
+ * rank1 = getRank(o1),
+ * rank2 = getRank(o2);
+ *
+ * if (rank1 === rank2) {
+ * return 0;
+ * }
+ *
+ * return rank1 < rank2 ? -1 : 1;
+ * }
+ * }],
+ * data: [{
+ * name: 'Person1',
+ * rank: 'second'
+ * }, {
+ * name: 'Person2',
+ * rank: 'third'
+ * }, {
+ * name: 'Person3',
+ * rank: 'first'
+ * }]
+ * });
