Python program to sort a List according to the Length of the Elements?


Here we use one user input array and we have to sorted the list according to the length of the elements. Here we use Python inbuilt function sorted().

Example

Input::[“mona”,”pp”,”aaa”]
Lengths are [4,2,3]
So, the sorted array should be [2,3,4]
Output::[“pp”,”aaa”,”mona”]

Algorithm

Step 1: Input list element.
Step 2: apply sorted (A,len) function.

Example code

# To sort a list 
def sortedlist(A):
   newlist = sorted(A, key=len)
   return newlist
# Driver code
A=list()
n=int(input("Enter the size of the List ::"))
print("Enter the Element ::")
for i in range(int(n)):
   k=input("")
   A.append(k)
print("SORTED LIST ::>",sortedlist(A))

Output

Enter the size of the List ::5
Enter the Element ::
mona
gulli
adwaita
aadrika
pinki
SORTED LIST ::> ['mona', 'gulli', 'pinki', 'adwaita', 'aadrika']
