Python Basic - 1: Exercise-126 with Solution

Write a Python program to convert the letters of a given string (same case-upper/lower) into alphabetical order.

Sample Solution-1:

Python Code:

def test(str1):
    return ''.join(sorted(str1))

str1 = "PHP"
print("Original string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1))
str1 = "javascript"
print("\nOriginal string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1))
str1 = "python"
print("\nOriginal string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1)) 

Sample Output:

Original string: PHP
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: HPP

Original string: javascript
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: aacijprstv

Original string: python
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: hnopty

Sample Solution-2:

Python Code:

def test(str1):
      result = ""
      for i in sorted(str1):
          result += i
      return result

str1 = "PHP"
print("Original string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1))
str1 = "javascript"
print("\nOriginal string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1))
str1 = "python"
print("\nOriginal string:",str1)
print("Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order:",test(str1))

Sample Output:

Original string: PHP
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: HPP

Original string: javascript
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: aacijprstv

Original string: python
Convert the letters of the said string into alphabetical order: hnopty
