  Usage
 
  SortFunctions can be chained together in primary, secondary, tertiary, etc order using the comma method. Consider a sequence of customer objects, where each customer object responds to the messages firstName, lastName, and age. If we want to sort them lastName first, then firstName, and finally oldest first, we would use an expression like:
 
  customers sort: #lastName ascending, #firstName ascending, #age descending
 
  As noted in my super's comment, unary symbols or single arg blocks can be used. One can omit the the ascending methods on arguments (not the receiver), it will default blocks or symbols to be ascending if none is specified. In other words, the above expression could be simplified slightly as
 
  customers sort: #lastName ascending, #firstName, #age descending
 
  (note the missing ascending on the #firstName argument)
 
  Instance Variables

+ next Function <SortFunction> the next SortFunction to evaluate in the event primary collation results are equal values!

  I am intended to be used in place of two arg sort blocks.
 
  Usage
 
  In the following example, an ascending SortFunction is created based on the result of the #first message send to each object.
  #(#(1 2) #(2 3) #(0 0)) sorted: #first ascending.
 
  To sort by the #last element, but descending, the following would be used:
  #(#(1 2) #(2 3) #(0 0)) sorted: #last descending.
 
  One can use blocks as well. The following sorts in descending order, the sub elements based on the sum of their values.
  | sumBlock |
  sumBlock := [:sequence | sequence inject: 0 into: [:sum :each | sum + each]].
  #(#(1 2) #(2 3) #(0 0)) sorted: sumBlock descending.
 
  One can even use 2 arg blocks, for those cases where the function isn't expressible with objects that respond to < and =. The only catch, is that such a function has to return not true and false, but instead a collation order, values of -1 (for before), 0 (the same) or 1 (to follow). For example:
 
  | oddBlock |
  oddBlock :=
  [:a :b |
  a odd = b odd ifTrue: [0] ifFalse: [a odd ifTrue: [-1] ifFalse: [1]]].
  #(1 5 1 3 2 7 9 4 6) asSortedCollection: oddBlock descending

  collator <SortFunction> This is the object responsible for collating objetcs, generally a SortFunction.
