Sort a list of lists by the last element of each sublist:

Sort by the total of each sublist:

Sort a list of integers by their values modulo 3:

Sort elements of an Association by their values modulo 3:

Use SortBy as an operator form:

Sort by numerical value:

The default order ranks these symbolically:

Sort by absolute numerical value:

Slightly faster way:

Sort by Re, Im, Arg, and Abs:

Sort by date:

Take a sample of rows from the Titanic resource data:

Sort them by age, placing Missing[…] values at the end:

Use a simpler notation:

Sort a list of vectors by their norm:

Their norms are sorted following canonical order, but not numerical order:

Explicitly request sorting of norms by numerical order:

Sort complex numbers by their modulus using numerical order:

Using canonical order gives a different result:

Sort by string length:

Sort according to decreasing lengths:

SortBy can be used on expressions with any head:

Show the top 10 countries according to different criteria:

Sort the first 10 countries in alphabetical order by population:

Sort the first 10 countries in alphabetical order by area:

Sort mathematically equivalent expressions by different criteria:

Sort by LeafCount:

Sort by size of error for numerical evaluation with machine numbers at :

Take a subset of the passengers of the Titanic:

Sort by gender and then age:

Sort[list] is equivalent to SortBy[list,Identity]:

SortBy[e,f] is equivalent to Sort[{f[#],#}&/@e][[All,-1]]:

ReverseSortBy uses reverse canonical ordering:

The result of ReverseSortBy[list,fs] is not always Reverse[SortBy[list,fs]]:

SortBy[list,f] is equivalent to list[[OrderingBy[list,f]]]:
