Sort Tuples Python

Question

I have a list of tuples in my Blender python code

scores=[(1489,\"Sean\"), (2850,\"Bob\"), (276,\"Crap Player\"), (78495, \"Great Player\"), (8473, \"Damian\         


        

Answer 1

scores.sort(reverse=True)
>>> print scores
[(78495, 'Great Player'), (8473, 'Damian'), (4860, 'Andy'), (2850, 'Bob'), (1489, 'Sean'), (276, 'Crap Player'), (0, 'Stephen')]
