Basically alphabetical order, but if you don't say lexicographical, it doesn't sound as smart. (I am assuming it's a more comprehensive term, having to do with other characters, other than simple letters, so that if integers were used, it would appear as 1234, where saying "in alphabetical order"doesn't make sense. But yeah, I did a double take.
