## Multicolumn / Lexicographical Sort Problem
-Most languages have native, optimized operations to sort a single column
(array) of data, which are specialized based on the type of data being sorted.
The reason that sorting is typically more challenging in analytic systems is
that it must:

The reason that sorting is typically more challenging in analytic systems is
that:

can not typically generate optimized code.

Multicolumn sorting is also referred to as lexicographical sorting in some
libraries.
