When it is required to sort the elements of an array in ascending order, the ‘sort’ method can be used. It helps sort the elements in ascending order by default. If we want it to be sorted in descending order, a parameter named ‘reverse’ can be set to True.
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Example
my_list = [44, 56, 42, 31, 11, 23, 78, 89, 9, 0] print("The list is :") print(my_list) my_list.sort() print("The list after sorting is :") print(my_list)
Output
The list is : [44, 56, 42, 31, 11, 23, 78, 89, 9, 0] The list after sorting is : [0, 9, 11, 23, 31, 42, 44, 56, 78, 89]
