使用非拉丁字符串作为键的Python中的Tuple排序

Question

I have figured out how to sort list which return a tuple with false. This key works when language is in English but won't work when translated to Japanese.

key=lambda x:(x.name!='Iraq', x.name)

This one won't work.

key=lambda x:(x.name!='イラク', x.name)

Any idea about this?

Add at the top of the file the following lines in order to support utf8:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
