Table Sorting

[Simon54]

Hello Community. I need a bit of help with sorting some numbers inside a table starting from the lowest value to the highest.

The numbers inserted into the table will be math.random but for this exercise we're using numbers: 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10.

My question is, with the following example down below is there a simple way to make them output in the order of: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 instead of: 10, 8, 2, 6, 4 ?

numTable = {}

-- insert
table.insert(numTable, 10)
table.insert(numTable, 8)
table.insert(numTable, 2)
table.insert(numTable, 6)
table.insert(numTable, 4)

-- sort

-- output
outputChatBox(tostring(numTable[1])..", "..tostring(numTable[2])..", "..tostring(numTable[3])..", "..tostring(numTable[4])..", "..tostring(numTable[5]))
