Syn :
Kind ;
species ;
rank ;
condition .
Usage : {
Sort }, {
Kind }.
Kind originally denoted things of the same family ,
or bound together by some natural affinity ;
and hence ,
a class .
Sort signifies that which constitutes a particular lot of parcel ,
not implying necessarily the idea of affinity ,
but of mere assemblage .
the two words are now used to a great extent interchangeably ,
though sort (
perhaps from its original meaning of lot )
sometimes carries with it a slight tone of disparagement or contempt ,
as when we say ,
that sort of people ,
that sort of language .

To arrange a collection of items
in some specified order . The items - {records } in a file or
data structures in memory - consist of one or more {fields } or
members . One of these fields is designated as the "sort key "
which means the records will be ordered according to the value
of that field . Sometimes a sequence of key fields is
specified such that if all earlier keys are equal then the
later keys will be compared . Within each field some ordering
is imposed , e .g . ascending or descending numerical , {lexical
ordering }, or date .
Sorting is the subject of a great deal of study since it is a
common operation which can consume a lot of computer time .
There are many well -known sorting {algorithms } with different
time and space behaviour and programming {complexity }.
Examples are {quicksort }, {insertion sort }, {bubble sort },
heap sort }, and {tree sort }. These employ many different
data structures to store sorted data , such as {arrays },
linked lists }, and {binary trees }.
2 . The {Unix } utility program for sorting lines of
files .
