The Difference between ASC & DESC

Ascending (ASC in Spreadsheet) means smallest to largest, for example the smallest price would be listed first and as you go down the rows, the prices would increase, or in an another example, the dates would start with the earliest date in the top row, and alphabetically the letters would go from A to Z as you move down the rows.

Descending (DESC in Spreadsheet) would list the largest number first and as you go down the rows, the prices would decrease.

–> In SQL the default is ASC / ascending, the values begin small or earliest and they increase as you go down.
