What is a list sort? (Definition)
A list sort is the arrangement of the items in a list in a specific order, such as alphabetical or numerical order.
How to sort a list of words/names?
Sorting/Ordering can be done alphabetically, reverse alphabetically, by length (size of the element), numerical value (from greatest/lowest/least), ascending or descending order. dCode also offers a totally random sorting (also see random selection tool).
For the classifications of words or proper names, dCode can manage accents and diacritics, sort words in uppercase or lowercase, etc.
Example: ABCD,BAC,CAB,BA,CB can be sorted alphabetically ABCD,BA,BAC,CAB,CB or by length BA,CB,BAC,CAB,ABCD.
Items that should be sorted can be displayed one per line, or word by word.

Sorting is made according to the position of the number over the axis of real numbers.
Example: 1,2,-3,0 can be sorted numerically -3,0,1,2 (from the smallest to the biggest)
dCode can handle integers, decimals or negative numbers.
