# Introduction In this lab, you will learn how to sort and limit MongoDB query results. The lab covers sorting documents by a single field, using multiple sort keys, limiting the result count, skipping documents, and counting the number of results. These techniques are essential for organizing and managing data in MongoDB, enabling you to effectively retrieve and analyze information from your database. The lab starts by demonstrating how to sort documents by a single field, both in ascending and descending order. It then explores the use of multiple sort keys, allowing you to create more complex sorting criteria. Additionally, you will learn how to limit the number of results returned, skip over a certain number of documents, and count the total number of results. These skills are crucial for optimizing your MongoDB queries and tailoring the output to your specific needs.
