How to sort a 2D list? [closed]

by

You can use a lambda:

>>> li=[[1, 0.23],
... [2, 0.39],
... [4, 0.31],
... [5, 0.27]]
>>> sorted(li,key=lambda l:l[1], reverse=True)
[[2, 0.39], [4, 0.31], [5, 0.27], [1, 0.23]]

Or the other way:

>>> sorted(li,key=lambda l:l[1])
[[1, 0.23], [5, 0.27], [4, 0.31], [2, 0.39]]
