If you have a sort function that works just leave it as it is and
rearrange your data before passing it to the sort function. Eg.
----------------------------------
d1 = [
((30,50),(90,)),
((30,50),(70,)),
((50,20),(20,)),
((20,20),(50,)),
((20,20),(60,)),
((20,20),(10,)),
]
d2 = [
((50,30),(90,)),
((50,30),(70,)),
((20,50),(20,)),
((20,20),(50,)),
((20,20),(60,)),
((20,20),(10,)),
]
def _sort_the_tuples(iterable):
#print list(iterable)
return sorted(iterable, key=lambda t: (-t[0][0], t[1][0]))
def sort_the_tuples(iterable, rearrange=lambda X: X):
return _sort_the_tuples(rearrange(t) for t in iterable)
assert sort_the_tuples(d1) == \
sort_the_tuples(d2, lambda X: ((X[0][1], X[0][0]), (X[1][0],)))
--------------------------------
The point of my previous response was to deal with a list of
dictionaries and sort by attribute rather than index, but whatever
works.
