Summary of the invention

At the defective that exists in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention proposes a kind of shortcut ranking method, this method comprises the following steps:

A. set a scheduled time;

B. the execution number of times of recording operation item in the given time;

C. arrange the order of action-item and set up corresponding M RU table according to the height of carrying out number of times;

D. the MRU table is stored in memory;

E. arrange action-item according to this MRU table.

This MRU table is along with the change of access times is upgraded automatically.

Described method is applied to mobile phone.

Before step a, also comprise step:, restart counting with the preceding MRU table zero clearing that once produces.

Action-item is a menu item.

Menu item rearranges menu bar according to the MRU list sorting.

Each menu item all has an icon, and the order that the icon of each menu item is pressed the MRU table shows.

Action-item is a telephone number.

Telephone number is according to the sequence arrangement of MRU table.

Therefore, the sort method that the present invention provides for the user, it utilizes MRU that menu and phone directory are sorted by frequency of utilization, thereby make conveniently choice menus mode of operation and from phone directory, select telephone number of user, and the troublesome poeration of having avoided looking for from numerous menus or telephone number menu commonly used or telephone number to bring is wasted time and energy.In addition, the present invention has realized that also menu facility hurdle and phone directory can upgrade automatically, thereby menu and phone directory are managed dynamically, and is more flexible.
