Sorting according to clockwise point coordinates

Question

Given a list in Python containing 8 x, y coordinate values (all positive) of 4 points as [x1, x2, x3, x4, y1, y2, y3, y4] ((xi, yi) are x and y coo

Answer 1

Based on BERA's answer but as a class:

code

import math

def class Sorter:
    @staticmethod    
    def centerXY(xylist):
        x, y = zip(*xylist)
        l = len(x)
        return sum(x) / l, sum(y) / l  

    @staticmethod    
    def sortPoints(xylist):  
        cx, cy = Sorter.centerXY(xylist)
        xy_sorted = sorted(xylist, key = lambda x: math.atan2((x[1]-cy),(x[0]-cx)))
        return xy_sorted

test

def test_SortPoints():
    points=[(0,0),(0,1),(1,1),(1,0)]
    center=Sorter.centerXY(points)
    assert center==(0.5,0.5)
    sortedPoints=Sorter.sortPoints(points)
    assert sortedPoints==[(0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1)]
