alphabetizer
Puts things sequentially
An alphabetizer is a person or tool that arranges items in alphabetical order.
The term applies to someone sorting files, a software function organizing lists, or any system that sequences by letter: The library's alphabetizer spent hours on the new acquisitions.
In computing, alphabetizers handle sorting algorithms for text data.
