ASCII sort order

Basically, the order is numerical based on the ASCII codes themselves

Lower numbered ASCII characters appear before higher numbered ones, thus:
-All uppercase characters appear before lowercase ones
-Characters with diacritical marks come after all other letters

This sort order differs from International sort ordering.

La Cucaracha	cartesian coordinates	If an Agent Knocks - Federal Investigators and Your Rights	Diacritical
Zen Sort
