Sorting

Sorting is the rearrangement of numbers (or other orderable objects) in a list into their correct lexographic order.Alphabetization is therefore a form of sorting. Because of the extreme importance of sorting in almost all databaseapplications, a great deal of effort has been expended in the creation and analysis of efficient sorting algorithms.
