Natural sort order
Ordering of strings in alphabetical order with numeric value consideration
Natural sort order
In computing, natural sort order (or natural sorting) is a way of ordering strings that treats embedded numbers as whole numerical values rather than sequences of characters. While standard alphabetical order compares strings character-by-character (where "10" sorts before "2" because "1" is less than "2"), natural sort order orders them by magnitude of the number, placing "2" before "10". Natural sort order is designed to address the shortcoming of standard lexicographical order, which often produces counter-intuitive results for humans when dealing with numbered lists, filenames, or version numbers.
