Sorting Lists in Python

Python provides easy ways to sort lists using sort() and sorted(). You can sort in ascending, descending, or even custom order.

1. Sort in Ascending Order (Default)

names = ["devendra", "abhishek", "chandrakant", "badri"]
names.sort()
print(names)

Output:

['abhishek', 'badri', 'chandrakant', 'devendra']

2. Sort in Descending Order

names = ["devendra", "abhishek", "chandrakant", "badri"]
names.sort(reverse=True)
print(names)

Output:

['devendra', 'chandrakant', 'badri', 'abhishek']

3. Using sorted() function

names = ["devendra", "abhishek", "chandrakant", "badri"]
sorted_list = sorted(names)
print(sorted_list)

Output:

['abhishek', 'badri', 'chandrakant', 'devendra']

4. Sort Numbers

numbers = [10, 5, 30, 20]
numbers.sort()
print(numbers)

Output:

[5, 10, 20, 30]

5. Custom Sort: By Length

names = ["dev", "abhishek", "chand", "bad"]
names.sort(key=len)
print(names)

Output:

['dev', 'bad', 'chand', 'abhishek']
