Say for instance I have an array of dates in string format

dates = ['06/12/08', '11/11/06', '01/01/07']

I want to sort this array in ascending order without using Ruby's
built-in date class. Is there a way of doing this?

Just started Ruby and I'm pretty much a newbie. I tried the sort!, but
it sorts only by day.

Thanks
Rob
