The conjecture was disproved in 1959 by L. R. Ford Jr. and Selmer M. Johnson, who found a different sorting algorithm, the Ford–Johnson merge-insertion sort, using fewer comparisons. [1] The same sequence of sorting numbers also gives the worst-case number of comparisons used by merge sort to sort items. [2]
A dash after a number no longer breaks default numerical sorting of a column. Therefore, a range (30–40) now works. A plus sign after a number breaks default numerical sorting if it is in one of the first 5 cells in a column. A plus sign in an otherwise empty cell breaks default numerical sorting of a column.

These will sort correctly, without this template's being necessary, provided the seconds have leading zeroes, and the decimals trailing zeroes where necessary. However, in a longer race, where the results include times both below and above 10 minutes, then times of 10 to 19 minutes will sort before any lower time of 2 minutes and above.
In computing, natural sort order (or natural sorting) is the ordering of strings in alphabetical order, except that multi-digit numbers are treated atomically, i.e., as if they were a single character. Natural sort order has been promoted as being more human-friendly ("natural") than machine-oriented, pure alphabetical sort order.
-k2,2n specifies sorting on the key starting and ending with column 2, and sorting numerically. If -k2 is used instead, the sort key would begin at column 2 and extend to the end of the line, spanning all the fields in between. -k1,1 dictates breaking ties using the value in column 1, sorting alphabetically by default. Note that bob, and chad ...
The Rata Die method works by adding up the number of days d that has passed since a date of known day of the week D. The day of-the-week is then given by (D + d) mod 7, conforming to whatever convention was used to encode D. For example, the date of 13 August 2009 is 733632 days from 1 January AD 1. Taking the number mod 7 yields 4, hence a ...
Microsoft Office is a paid suite of productivity apps while Google Docs Editors Suite is available for free to users with private Google accounts. It is also offered as part of Google's business-oriented Google Workspace service, which ran until October 2020 under the name G Suite, a monthly subscription service that unlocks additional features.
