python sort dictionary by specific key value code example

Example 1: python sort dict by key

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

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

Example 2: sort dict by value python 3

>>> d = {"aa": 3, "bb": 4, "cc": 2, "dd": 1}
>>> for k in sorted(d, key=d.get, reverse=True):
...     k, d[k]
...
('bb', 4)
('aa', 3)
('cc', 2)
('dd', 1)

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: python sort dict by value

x = {1: 2, 3: 4, 4: 3, 2: 1, 0: 0}
{k: v for k, v in sorted(x.items(), key=lambda item: item[1])}
