Feature Request: Not sorting the correlation matrix

[SemKl]

Missing functionality

First of all, this is a wonderful tool. Thank you very much for making this.

I was wondering if there is an option, or whether it could be added, not to sort the correlation matrix alphabetically. Currently, even when calling ProfileReport(data, sort=None) (which is also the default), the order of all columns is kept in every section, except in the correlation matrix, which is still sorted alphabetically.

Proposed feature

Allow the correlation matrix to not be sorted alphabetically. I think it should be linked to the sort parameter as well.

Hi @SemKl ,

thank your for your words! It is great to know the impact that ydata-profiling has!

It is certainly possible. We will consider it for the next releases.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I’ll look forward to it! For now, as a workaround, I prepend integers to my variable names using zfill, so it wil sort “ascending” using those numbers. Might be useful for anyone looking for a temporary solution!
