Description

Perl applications can sort strings in a natural order where embedded numbers are treated as numbers. This makes lists such as file1, file2, and file10 appear in the order users usually expect.

It is a developer library for display and reporting. Natural sort rules should be tested for the application's language, case handling, and mixed text-number patterns.
