Above is a dataframe information.

i need to sort the entire dataframe based on the  3rd colum. in decending
order.

I tried using order

information[order(information[,3])] but it gives me only the ordered first
coulmn that too i am not sure that it really works.

Kindly let me know with any suggestions.

Regards
Ramya
