Frequently Asked Questions
A line sorter rearranges the lines in a block of text into a specific order. You can sort alphabetically (A–Z), reverse alphabetically (Z–A), numerically, by line length, or shuffle randomly.
Lines are sorted using locale-aware comparison, so accented and special characters sort correctly. Numbers at the start of lines are treated as text in A–Z mode.
Numeric sort extracts the leading number from each line and sorts by that value. For example, '10. Item' sorts after '9. Item' — unlike alphabetical sort where '10' would come before '9'.
Shuffle randomly reorders all lines using a Fisher-Yates algorithm. It's useful for randomizing question lists, study cards, item orders, and more.
Common use cases include sorting import statements in code, alphabetizing word lists, organizing bullet points, sorting CSV rows, and deduplicating keyword lists.
