concerning your sorting:

please make a for-loop over all items in the liste.

check if one element is \< then the next - if so **swap** the two

repeat this until no swapping was necessary

**Remark**

basically you can call sortering() in keyPressed() like here:

```auto
void keyPressed() {
  sortering();
}

```
