sort the dict by key 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: 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 3: sort dictionary
#for dictionary d
sorted(d.items(), key=lambda x: x[1]) #for inceasing order
sorted(d.items(), key=lambda x: x[1], reverse=True) # for decreasing order
#it will return list of key value pair tuples
