About the Ordering Numbers Calculator

Ordering (or sorting) a list arranges its values from smallest to largest or largest to smallest. Sorted data is the starting point for many other statistics, including the median, quartiles and range.

Formula: Ascending order places each value so that every value is less than or equal to the one after it; descending order reverses this sequence

Sorting a dataset makes it easy to spot the minimum, maximum, and overall spread at a glance, and is a required first step for calculating percentiles, medians and box plots by hand.
