Sort Tool

About

Utilize this tool to arrange an unordered list in a logical or alphabetical manner. Both ascending and descending orders are available. You can also order by character width or length.

Sorting Method

This utility allows you to sort text lines in three distinct ways.

  • Alphabetical order - The conventional method used by computers to sort text is alphabetical sorting. The string whose first letter occurs sooner in the alphabet (A-Z) comes first when each character is compared in order. The same is true for numbers (0-9).

  • Natural order - A more approachable method of alphabetical sorting for machines is known as natural sort. Non-single-digit numbers such as "10," "11," "12," and higher are treated as a single object and are sorted by their value. If you're working with numbered lists, you should utilize this.

  • By Character Length - A list can be sorted according to how long or wide the text is. The list is ordered from shortest to maximum character length, with the shorter strings appearing first.

    • Basic Examples

    Alphabetical sort - Because "1" is larger than "1," "X21" appears before "X2" in the example presented below.

    X2
X12
X3

    Natural sort

    X2
X3
X12

    Character Length

    XX
XXX
XXXX

    Reverse

    The text is reversed when you choose this option.

    Example: Reversed after character length sorting.

    XXXX
XXX
XX

    How to Order Items in a List Descendingly

    By default, texts are arranged in ascending order. After sorting a list alphabetically or naturally, you can use the reverse option to sort it in descending order (9-0 and Z-A).

    Random Sort

    Text can be sorted using the following methods in any order: Shuffle. The list's arrangement is made randomly.
