suggested | current |
---|---|
rising | ascending, normal_order |
falling | descending, reverse_order |
Can we standardize on rising and falling? These are the simplest English words I can suggest.
I hope not. I've been giving this a bit more thought and I'm starting to think that normal / reverse are actually good choices.
In any given language, there is a collating order for characters (graphemes) that is accepted as the 'normal' way to do it, and the most common variation to the normal sequence is to 'reverse' it.
