With data.table, the following is routine :
DT[order(a)] # ascending
DT[order(-a)] # descending, if a is numeric
DT[a>5,sum(z),by=c][order(-V1)] # sum of z group by c, just where a>5,
then show me the largest first
DT[order(-a,b)] # order by a descending then by b ascending, if a and b are
I was wondering whether it would be possible to make a method for
data.frame with sort().
I think it would be more intuitive than using the complex construction
of df[order(df$a),]
Is there any reason not to make it?

it to be
order( , df1[,2],decreasing=TRUE)
So clearly I don't understand what is going on but at least I a lot better off.
I may be able to get this graph to work.

Ah, this never would have occured to me. It's rather obvious now but of
course, I'll forget it again. Note to self: Put it in the cribsheet.
Thanks very mcuy
