Python: Get a list, sorted in increasing order by the last element in each tuple from a given list of non-empty tuples

Python List: Exercise-6 with Solution

Write a Python program to get a list, sorted in increasing order by the last element in each tuple from a given list of non-empty tuples.

Sample Solution:-

Python Code:

def last(n): return n[-1]

def sort_list_last(tuples):
  return sorted(tuples, key=last)

print(sort_list_last([(2, 5), (1, 2), (4, 4), (2, 3), (2, 1)]))

Sample Output: 

[(2, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (4, 4), (2, 5)]

Python: Tips of the Day

Returns True if the provided function returns True for every element in the list, False otherwise:

Example:

def tips_every(lst, fn=lambda x: x):
  return all(map(fn, lst))

print(tips_every([2, 4, 3], lambda x: x > 1))
print(tips_every([1, 2, 3]))

Output:

True
True
