Example 1: reverse list python
>>> the_list = [1,2,3]
>>> reversed_list = the_list.reverse()
>>> list(reversed_list)
[3,2,1]
OR
>>> the_list = [1,2,3]
>>> the_list[::-1]
[3,2,1]
Example 2: python sort list in reverse order
# there are two types of lists
# returns new list
sorted(list_name, reverse=True)
# changes list in place
list_name.sort(reverse=True)
Example 3: python sort list in reverse
#1 Changes list
list.sort(reverse=True)
#2 Returns sorted list
sorted(list, reverse=True)
Example 4: sort an array python
#List
myList = [1,5,3,4]
myList.sort()
print(myList)
#[1,3,4,5]
Example 5: how to sort a list descending python
# defning A as a list
A.sort(reverse = True)
Example 6: python sort
nums = [4,8,5,2,1]
#1 sorted() (Returns sorted list)
sorted_nums = sorted(nums)
print(sorted_nums)#[1,2,4,5,8]
print(nums)#[4,8,5,2,1]
#2 .sort() (Changes original list)
nums.sort()
print(nums)#[1,2,4,5,8]
