Most existing programs that manipulate
tables of numbers (e.g. excel) have built-in sorting functions.  If you're writing your own code, C (and other languages) have a library routine called qsort() or QuickSort() or some such.

Technically, Tony Hoare'sQuickSort is the fastest general-purpose sorting algorithm.  Any good algorithms book (e.g. Cormen, Leiserson, & Rivest) will give you the lowdown.
