An Excel shortcut drill from Shortcutdrill. Solve it with a live sheet in your browser with a limit on key presses, and it is checked the moment you submit.
The task

What this drill teaches
Alt, A, S, A sorts ascending on the column you are in and keeps each row together. Excel treats the first row as a header when it holds text, so the header stays on top.
