Place the smallest number of significant digits at the top and the largest number at the bottom of the column?

Placing the smallest digit at the top and listing so the digits continue down to the largest number is to sort in ascending order, from, for example, 1 to 10.To place the numbers with the largest at the top and the smallest at the bottom is to sort in descending order, say from 10 to 1.These terms also apply to other sorted data, so a column of words, for example, might be sorted alphabetically in either ascending or descending order, with the first letters listed from A to Z, or from Z to A.

Is French a more economical language than English?

In terms of the number of letters and words typically used to express an idea, English is more economical. English often shortens phrases by using a noun to modify another noun, as in "ham sandwich." In French the main noun (sandwich) would come first, followed by "de jambon," equivalent to "of ham." Many words that are cognate between the two languages may be spelled with more letters in French. For example, "blue" always has four letters in English. French "bleu" has four letters basically, but will have a "e" added if the noun it modifies is feminine, and/or an "s" if the noun is plural. American English uses even fewer letters than British, as in "program"--in place of "programme" in both French and British English.
