Question

1) Write a function, input as an array of values and output should be sorted by integer part
of the string.
Input array: ['ab-1', 'ab-021', 'ab-201', 'ab-011', 'ab-12','ab-22')
Sort values in ascending order based on integer part after the hyphen character (-).
Expected output should be as, ['ab-1', 'ab-011', 'ab-12', 'ab-021', 'ab-22', 'ab-201']​

Answer 1

Answer:

array=['ab-1',' ab-021','ab-201', 'ab-011', 'ab-12','ab-22']

b=[]

for i in array:

pos=i.find('-')

pos+=1

b.append(i[pos:])

c=[]

for i in b:

if(i[0]=='0'):

c.append(int(i[1:]))

else:

c.append(int(i))

c.sort()

p=[]

for i in c:

for j in range(len(b)):

if(b[j].startswith('0') and str(i)==b[j][1:]):

p.append(b[j])

elif(str(i)==b[j]):

p.append(b[j])

f=[]

for j in p:

for i in range(len(array)):

pos=array[i].find('-')

pos+=1

if(str(j)==array[i][pos:]):

f.append(array[i])

print(f)
