Can you make a word that can be used to define filters and sort? What are their meanings?
Is filtering like restricting things out of a group of things, while sorting is keeping the group of things the same but changing the order? What is the best way to classify this “change of a grouping” in a word?
A sieve is
a device with meshes or perforations through which fine particles of a mixture (as of ashes, flour, or sand) of different sizes may be passed to separate them from coarser ones
To sieve (the verb form) is for perform an operation.
