order dict python code example

Example 1: how can I sort a dictionary in python according to its values?

s = {1: 1, 7: 2, 4: 2, 3: 1, 8: 1}
k = dict(sorted(s.items(),key=lambda x:x[0],reverse = True))
print(k)

Example 2: ordered dictionary python

from collections import OrderedDict

# Remembers the order the keys are added!
x = OrderedDict(a=1, b=2, c=3)

Example 3: python sort dict by value

A={1:2, -1:4, 4:-20}
{k:A[k] for k in sorted(A, key=A.get)}

output:
{4: -20, 1: 2, -1: 4}

Example 4: sort a dictionary

from operator import itemgetter
new_dict = sorted(data.items(), key=itemgetter(1))

Example 5: dict sort

[(k,di[k]) for k in sorted(di.keys())]
