Answers
Answer:
Data sorting is any process that involves arranging the data into some meaningful order to make it easier to understand, analyze or visualize. When working with research data, sorting is a common method used for visualizing data in a form that makes it easier to comprehend the story the data is telling. Sorting can be done with raw data (across all records) or at an aggregated level (in a table, chart, or some other aggregated or summarized output).
Data is typically sorted based on actual values, counts or percentages, in either ascending or descending order, but can also be sorted based on the variable value labels. Value labels are metadata found in some programs which allow the researcher to store labels for each value option of a categorical question. Most software applications also allow sorting by multiple variables. This type of sorting will be executed in a predetermined variable priority, for example, a data set containing region and country fields can first be sorted by region as the primary sort and then by country. The county sort will be applied within each sorted region.
