Re: Sorting of list containing tuples

Uhm, thanks. (I've used lambda-sort earlier, but quite forgot..) :) On 18 May 2006 12:38:55 -0700, Paul Rubin wrote: >Ronny Mandal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >> And now I want to sort l reverse by the second element in the tuple, >> i.e the result should ideally be

Sorting of list containing tuples

Hi! Assume we have a list l, containing tuples t1,t2... i.e. l = [(2,3),(3,2),(6,5)] And now I want to sort l reverse by the second element in the tuple, i.e the result should ideally be: l = [(6,5),(2,3),(3,2)] Any ideas of how to accomplish this? Thanks, Ronny Mandal -- http://mail.pyt
