Sort files by last edited after finding them in a specific directory?

Question

I'm looking to combine find . -mtime 0

and ls -lt

To find all files modified in the last day in the current working directory, sorted by last modification date.

It sounds like you want command substitution which is done with $(command). It takes the output of a command and allows you to use it as command line arguments for another command:

ls -lt $(find . -mtime 0)
