Sorting Python Dictionary

Unlike the list or tuple, dict has no order. Therefore, the dict type cannot be sorted, so if you want to sort the dict, you have to express it as a list of tuples.

For example. I want to set it at a price other than a keyCotton

import operator
x = {'1': 2, '3': 4, '4': 3, '2': 1, '0': 0}
sorted_x = sorted(x.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(1))

In this case, sorted_x is a list of tuples sorted based on the second element.

dict(sorted_x) is equal to x.

If you want to sort by key, you can write:

import operator
x = {1: 2, 3: 4, 4: 3, 2: 1, 0: 0}
sorted_x = sorted(x.items(), key=operator.itemgetter(0))
