What is the order for "type -a"?

[YousufSSyed]

This is the output when I do type -a type:

type is a builtin
type is /usr/bin/type

Does fish sort them in any particular order? Which type runs when I write it?

Functions beat builtins beat commands, so that's the order type uses.

The first one it prints is also the one that runs, unless you decorate it like command type (which runs /usr/bin/type) or builtin type (which runs the builtin, ignoring any functions if you have any).

If type -a type ran the type command it could not tell you about the builtins - they only exist inside the shell
