// Sort an array of numbers 
let numbers = [5, 13, 1, 44, 32, 15, 500]

// Lowest to highest
let lowestToHighest = numbers.sort((a, b) => a - b);
//Output: [1,5,13,15,32,44,500]

//Highest to lowest
let highestToLowest = numbers.sort((a, b) => b-a);
//Output: [500,44,32,15,13,5,1]

                                    // Sort Numbers in Descending Order
function sortDescending(num) {
	return Number(num.toString().split('').sort((a, b) =&gt; b - a).join(''));
//or: return parseInt(num.toString().split('').sort().reverse().join(''));
}

console.log(sortDescending(123)); // 321
console.log(sortDescending(1254859723)); // 9875543221

                                    // ascending and discending for number
const arr1 = [21, 2100, 2, 35000];
const arr2 = [21, 2100, 2, 35000];

let ascN = arr1.sort((f, s) =&gt; f - s);
let dscN = arr2.sort((f, s) =&gt; s - f);

// ascending and discending for string
const arr3 = ['21', '2100', '2', '35000'];
const arr4 = ['21', '2100', '2', '35000'];

let ascS = arr3.sort((f, s) =&gt; f.length - s.length);
let dscS = arr4.sort((f, s) =&gt; s.length - f.length);
