  2. Help:Sortable tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Sortable_tables

    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.

    The frequency and location of each word determines the first sorting. [1] The order of the words determines the second sorting. If the two words happen to be found in the same order on a page, that page is boosted again. The number of incoming links. [2] These attributes for a word earn that page a higher score: position in the title

Ordered search within the Google and Yahoo! search engines is possible using the asterisk (*) full-word wildcards: in Google this matches one or more words, [9] and an in Yahoo! Search this matches exactly one word. [10] (This is easily verified by searching ...

    Merge sort. In computer science, a sorting algorithm is an algorithm that puts elements of a list into an order.The most frequently used orders are numerical order and lexicographical order, and either ascending or descending.

  7. Collation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collation

    Sorting decimals properly is a bit more difficult, because different locales use different symbols for a decimal point, and sometimes the same character used as a decimal point is also used as a separator, for example "Section 3.2.5". There is no universal answer for how to sort such strings; any rules are application dependent.

  8. Natural sort order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_sort_order

    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.

  9. Sorting number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_number

    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]
