Default sorting values

I would like to use a formula to copy all the values from a range (in a
column) to the next column, at which time they are sorted from high to low.
This way I can see the originial data side by side with the sorted data.

Numbers in A1:A20.
Enter this in B1, and copy down:

=SMALL(A$1:A$20,ROWS($1:1))

=Large(A$1:A$20,ROWS($1:1))
