I have been trying to solve the following problem, but I am stumped.

I need to assign indexes to a list of ordered values according to their size,

As you can see, the indexes are assigned to the random values according to their size, so that the smallest is 1 and the biggest is 5, and the resulting list is indicative of their size relative to each other, and of the original order. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I need to assign indexes to a list of ordered values according to their size,
so that a list of random values such as:
13   2   9   66   30 
will be transformed into the following   
3   1   2   5   4

that's what i first thought of :


Yes. This is exactly what I needed. Making the random numbers act as the indexes for what used to be the actual indexes is so clever! I would have never thought about it at my level of skill.

Coll is very helpful object for many tasks, can also sort stuff itself.

You are welcome.

We can also use the second outlet of [zl sort] object, and we are almost there:

@Jean-Francois Charles Beautiful and totally not obvious. :) Thanks!
