      else if (b != null)
        return -1;
      else
        return 0;
    };
    
    function compareStrings(a, b) {
      if (a < b)
        return -1;
      else if (a > b)
        return 1;
      else
        return 0;
    };
    
    var a = '5064a2e300cf3f6e421f8ccb';
    var b = '5064a2e300cf3f6e421f8ccb';
