In this article, we would like to show you how to sort list in Python.

Quick solution:

my_list = ['C', 'A', 'B']

my_list.sort()

print(my_list)  # ['A', 'B', 'C']

 

1. Ascending

Example 1

In this example, we sort the list of letters in alphabetical order.

letters = ['C', 'A', 'B']

letters.sort()

print(letters)  # ['A', 'B', 'C']

Output:

['A', 'B', 'C']

Example 2

In this example, we sort the list of numbers in ascending order.

numbers = [3, 1, 2]

numbers.sort()

print(numbers)  # [1, 2, 3]

Output:

[1, 2, 3]

2. Descending

Example 1

In this example, we sort the list of letters in reverse order.

letters = ['A', 'C', 'B']

letters.sort(reverse=True)

print(letters)  # ['C', 'B', 'A']

Output:

['C', 'B', 'A']

Example 2

In this example, we sort the list of numbers in descending order.

numbers = [3, 1, 2]

numbers.sort(reverse=True)

print(numbers)  # [3, 2, 1]

Output:

[3, 2, 1]
