(i) Sorting means to arrange data in a particular order which could be ascending or descending order.
For example, sorting a list of names of students alphabetically or marks in descending order from the highest to the lowest.

(ii) Filtering is a quick and efficient method where you display only that data that meets a given criteria. Ms excel uses two types of filtering methods, that is, Auto filter and Advanced filter.
