Hello.
I would like to sort a list like
[x11,x8,x10,x9]
so as to get
[x8,x9,x10,x11]
This does not work, of course:
sorted([x11,x8,x10,x9],key=repr)
as it gives
[x10,x11,x8,x9]
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Guillermo

You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups
sorted(L, key=lambda v: (v[:1],int(v[1:])))
would do the trick. In general, you could look at something like
https://pypi.org/project/natsort/. It might be able to make a more natural
sortkey in more examples (in general, the idea would be to split your
string in alphabetic and numerical substr
Thank you very much, Nils.
As I have a list of variables, I changed it to
sorted(L, key=lambda v: (str(v)[:1],int(str(v)[1:])))
Another question: How can I get natsort?
from natsort import natsorted
gives
ImportError: No module named natsort
