Abstract
A method and system for sorting a table based on a column containing fractions. In the table, a first column representing values of a first parameter, a second column representing values of a second parameter, and a third column representing values of a third parameter defined as the ratio of the second parameter to the first parameter are identified. Then, a fourth column representing values of a fourth parameter is generated. The fourth column has a relation to the third parameter that is defined in terms of a weighted sum of the values of the third parameter and an average value associated with the values of the third parameter using a weight function defined as a monotonically decreasing function of the values of the first parameter. The table is sorted in ascending or descending order the rows of the table based on the values of the fourth parameter.
