Before sorting:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
After sorting by last digits with sort:
10 0 11 1 12 2 13 3 4 14 5 15 6 16 7 17 8 18 9 19

Before sorting:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
After sorting by last digits with stable_sort:
0 10 1 11 2 12 3 13 4 14 5 15 6 16 7 17 8 18 9 19
