Imagine I have a list of tuples in this format:
(1, 2, 3)
(1, 0, 2)
(3, 9 , 11)
(0, 2, 8)
(2, 3, 4)
(2, 4, 5)
(2, 7, 8)
....
How could I sort the list by the first element of the tuples, and then by the second? I'd like to get to this list:
(0, 2, 8)
(1, 0, 2)
(1, 2, 3)
(2, 3, 4)
(2, 4, 5)
(2, 7, 8)
(3, 9 , 11)
I was thinking to do a sort for the first element, and then go through the list, and build a hash with subarrays. I will probably overcomplicate things :), and this is why I asked for other ways of doing this sort.
Why not simply let python sort the list for you ?
my_list = [
(1, 2, 3),
(1, 0, 2),
(3, 9 , 11),
(0, 2, 8),
(2, 3, 4),
(2, 4, 5),
(2, 7, 8),
]
print sorted(my_list)
>>>[(0, 2, 8), (1, 0, 2), (1, 2, 3), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8), (3, 9, 11)]
Python automagically does the right thing:
>>> a = [(1, 2, 3), (1, 0, 2), (3, 9, 11), (0, 2, 8), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8)]
>>> a.sort()
>>> a
[(0, 2, 8), (1, 0, 2), (1, 2, 3), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8), (3, 9, 11)]
Tuples are already sorted that way.
Try this:
#!/usr/bin/python2
l = [
(1, 2, 3),
(1, 0, 2),
(3, 9 , 11),
(0, 2, 8),
(2, 3, 4),
(2, 4, 5),
(2, 7, 8),
]
l.sort()
print l
If you don't mind sorting by all three elements, this is really trivial:
>>> l = [(1, 2, 3), (1, 0, 2), (3, 9, 11), (0, 2, 8), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8)]
>>> l.sort()
>>> l
[(0, 2, 8), (1, 0, 2), (1, 2, 3), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8), (3, 9, 11)]
>>> x = [
... (1, 2, 3),
... (1, 0, 2),
... (3, 9 , 11),
... (0, 2, 8),
... (2, 3, 4),
... (2, 4, 5),
... (2, 7, 8),
... ]
>>> x.sort()
>>> x
[(0, 2, 8), (1, 0, 2), (1, 2, 3), (2, 3, 4), (2, 4, 5), (2, 7, 8), (3, 9, 11)]
