Example 1: how do i sort list in python
my_list = [9, 3, 1, 5, 88, 22, 99]
# sort in decreasing order
my_list = sorted(my_list, reverse=True)
print(my_list)
# sort in increasing order
my_list = sorted(my_list, reverse=False)
print(my_list)
# another way to sort using built-in methods
my_list.sort(reverse=True)
print(my_list)
# sort again using slice indexes
print(my_list[::-1])
# Output
# [99, 88, 22, 9, 5, 3, 1]
# [1, 3, 5, 9, 22, 88, 99]
# [99, 88, 22, 9, 5, 3, 1]
# [1, 3, 5, 9, 22, 88, 99]
Example 2: sorting by second element
sorted(LISTNAME, key=lambda x: x[1])
Example 3: how to sort list python
a_list = [3,2,1]
a_list.sort()
Example 4: how to sort a list in python
l=[1,3,2,5]
l= sorted(l)
print(l)
#output=[1, 2, 3, 5]
#or reverse the order:
l=[1,3,2,5]
l= sorted(l,reverse=True)
print(l)
#output=[5, 3, 2, 1]
Example 5: list sort python
>>> names = ['Harry', 'Suzy', 'Al', 'Mark']
>>> sorted(names)
['Al', 'Harry', 'Mark', 'Suzy']
>>> sorted(names, reverse=True)
['Suzy', 'Mark', 'Harry', 'Al']
