Python: Sort a given list of strings(numbers) numerically using lambda
Python Lambda: Exercise-48 with Solution
Write a Python program to sort a given list of strings(numbers) numerically using lambda.
Sample Solution:
Python Code :
def sort_numeric_strings(nums_str):
result = sorted(nums_str, key=lambda el: int(el))
return result
nums_str = ['4','12','45','7','0','100','200','-12','-500']
print("Original list:")
print(nums_str)
print("\nSort the said list of strings(numbers) numerically:")
print(sort_numeric_strings(nums_str))
Sample Output:
Original list: ['4', '12', '45', '7', '0', '100', '200', '-12', '-500'] Sort the said list of strings(numbers) numerically: ['-500', '-12', '0', '4', '7', '12', '45', '100', '200']
