How can I sort a few random numbers in ascending/descending order using collection

Hello,

Just make sure that particular column (i.e. column contains random numbers) datatype as "Number", use the actions like ascending/descending.

Good Luck.

Hi ,

I have more than 100 columns in my excel and when I take them in collection ,by default it takes data type as text but I want them to be taken as number data type so that I can sort them easily. Is there any way ..thanks in advance

I think, you have to do type casting for this.

You change the data type in excel so while puting in collection it will be taken as number. In this case you no need to type cast
