Python Coding challenge - Day 322| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

Input Data:

data = [(1, 'b'), (3, 'a'), (2, 'c')]

This line creates a list of tuples named data. Each tuple contains two elements:

A number (e.g., 1, 3, 2).

A string (e.g., 'b', 'a', 'c').

Sorting the Data:

sorted_data = sorted(data, key=lambda x: x[1])

sorted(iterable, key):

sorted is a Python built-in function that returns a sorted version of an iterable (like a list) without modifying the original.

The key argument specifies a function to determine the "sorting criteria."

key=lambda x: x[1]:

A lambda function is used to specify the sorting criteria.

The input x represents each tuple in the data list.

x[1] extracts the second element (the string) from each tuple.

The list is sorted based on these second elements ('b', 'a', 'c') in ascending alphabetical order.

Printing the Sorted Data:

print(sorted_data)

This prints the sorted version of the data list.

Output:

[(3, 'a'), (1, 'b'), (2, 'c')]
