I have a spreadsheet (technically a Google Sheet) I transcribed from a script of a musical. Each line is its own row, and has the name of the person who said it and the number of words in the line in the same row.
I want to make a list of people who have lines sorted by the total number of words they've said. What functions can I use to do this?

I'm guessing people's names appear multiple times, so suggest a pivot table:
Bod
added to ROWS andWords
added to VALUES with Summarise by SUM.Sorting is by
Bod
by default but can be by Sum of Words, either ascending or descending.
