Sort Dictionary key and values List in Python
When it is required to sort the key and values in a dictionary, the ‘sorted’ method can be used.
Below is the demonstration of the same −
Example
my_dict = {'Hi': [1, 6, 3],
'there': [2, 9, 6],
'Mark': [16, 7]}
print("The dictionary is : ")
print(my_dict)
my_result = dict()
for key in sorted(my_dict):
my_result[key] = sorted(my_dict[key])
print("The sorted dictionary is : " )
print(my_result)Output
The dictionary is :
{'Hi': [1, 6, 3], 'there': [2, 9, 6], 'Mark': [16, 7]}
The sorted dictionary is :
{'Hi': [1, 3, 6], 'Mark': [7, 16], 'there': [2, 6, 9]}Explanation
