sorted more than one variableexamples python
Example 1: sorted vs sort python
# The sort() function will modify the list it is called on.
# The sorted() function will create a new list
# containing a sorted version of the list it is given.
list = [4,8,2,1]
list.sort()
#--> list = [1,2,4,8] now
list = [4,8,2,1]
new_list = list.sorted()
#--> list = [4,8,2,1], but new_list = [1,2,4,8]
Example 2: python sort based on multiple keys
>>> def multisort(xs, specs):
... for key, reverse in reversed(specs):
... xs.sort(key=attrgetter(key), reverse=reverse)
... return xs
