Python: 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


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 List : [(2, 5), (1, 2), (4, 4), (2, 3), (2, 1)]
Expected Result : [(2, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (4, 4), (2, 5)]

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)]))

Console :
