# First `r numlist` observations of iris data set (`r  params$sortorder`)
Because the \mytextit{sortorder} parameter was set to descending we will first sort the iris dataset in descending order on \mytextit{Sepal.Length}.

```{r r1a,results='asis'}
data(iris)
iris = iris[order(iris$Sepal.Length,decreasing = TRUE),]
caption1d = paste('first',numlist, 
  'observations of iris data set in descending order of Sepal.Length')
xtable(iris[1:numlist,],row.names=F, caption=def_tab('r1d',caption1d),
  format='latex', longtable=F)
```
