What’s the command for sorting the file?

You saw in the previous exercise that the numbers were sorted alphabetically 10, 11, 12 before 1, 2….

You can use one of the options to sort numbers correctly. Check this website for a table with the options. Which option?

The default way of sorting is from low to high. Which option allows to sort from high to low?

Now try to sort from high to low but taking into account that these are numbers. 

Tip: you can write both options together after a single – sign.

The second column of the file contains names. What’s the option to sort the lines in the file according to names?

Tip: first you write the option, then a blank, then the value for the option. 

Now combine the 2 options: sort on the names but in reverse order. 

Tip: Use a single – sign and end with the option that has a value.
