NumPy: From given student name, height, and class sort by class, then height if class are equal
NumPy Sorting and Searching: Exercise-3 with Solution
Write a NumPy program to create a structured array from given student name, height, class and their data types. Now sort by class, then height if class are equal.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
import numpy as np
data_type = [('name', 'S15'), ('class', int), ('height', float)]
students_details = [('James', 5, 48.5), ('Nail', 6, 52.5),('Paul', 5, 42.10), ('Pit', 5, 40.11)]
# create a structured array
students = np.array(students_details, dtype=data_type)
print("Original array:")
print(students)
print("Sort by class, then height if class are equal:")
print(np.sort(students, order=['class', 'height']))
Sample Output:
Original array: [(b'James', 5, 48.5 ) (b'Nail', 6, 52.5 ) (b'Paul', 5, 42.1 ) (b'Pit', 5, 40.11)] Sort by class, then height if class are equal: [(b'Pit', 5, 40.11) (b'Paul', 5, 42.1 ) (b'James', 5, 48.5 ) (b'Nail', 6, 52.5 )]

Previous:Write a NumPy program to create a structured array from given student name, height, class and their data types. Now sort the array on height.
Next: Write a NumPy program to sort the student id with increasing height of the students from given students id and height. Print the integer indices that describes the sort order by multiple columns and the sorted data.
