Explain sort command
 
Hello,
Please explain the follwing command briefly:
sort -r -n +4 -5 filename

That looks like a homework question - is that right? Have you looked at the man page for sort? It should tell you all you need to know.

Briefly: it sorts filename with user-specified options.

The briefest: "man sort"

I think maybe not homework--posting history says no.
