How do I sort this list of tuples by both values?

Question

I have a list of tuples: [(2, Operation.SUBSTITUTED), (1, Operation.DELETED), (2, Operation.INSERTED)]

I would like to sort this list in 2 ways:

Answer 1

Another way using itemgetter from operator module:

from operator import itemgetter

lst = [(2, 'Operation.SUBSTITUTED'), (1, 'Operation.DELETED'), (2, 'Operation.INSERTED')]

inter = sorted(lst, key=itemgetter(1), reverse=True)
sorted_lst = sorted(inter, key=itemgetter(0))

print(sorted_lst)

# [(1, 'Operation.DELETED'), (2, 'Operation.SUBSTITUTED'), (2, 'Operation.INSERTED')]
