How to sort a list
- Paste your list into the top box, one item per line.
- Choose how you want it sorted from the Sort by menu.
- Copy the sorted list from the result box.
Sorting options explained
- A to Z and Z to A: alphabetical order. Numbers inside text are sorted naturally.
- Number, low to high: great for prices, scores and ranked lists like "15 Paris" and "3 Rome".
- Length: puts the shortest or longest lines first. Writers use this to find the snappiest headline from a list of drafts.
- Reverse current order: flips the list upside down without sorting it.
- Random shuffle: mixes up the list. Perfect for picking a random winner, setting a quiz order or making teams.
Ideas for using it
Teachers shuffle student names to choose who presents first. Event planners alphabetize guest lists for the door. Developers sort import statements, config keys or CSS properties to keep files tidy. Shoppers sort a grocery list so the same kinds of items end up together. If you want to remove repeated entries too, run your list through the duplicate line remover first.
