Hi,

I have a dataset of items and their prices.

 

Items    Price 

a           10

b           1000

c            200

d            500

 

How do I create a table that shows items by descending order of price?

 

Items    price

b          1000

d          500 

c          200

a          10

 

Thanks for your help!
