python函数sorted_Python sorted()函数不应该按照它应该的方式工...

基本上我有一个嵌套列表,我试图通过第一个索引进行排序

我复制了python howto如何做的方式,但它似乎不起作用,我不明白为什么：

来自网站的代码：

>>> student_tuples = [

('john', 'A', 15),

('jane', 'B', 12),

('dave', 'B', 10),

]

>>> sorted(student_tuples, key=lambda student: student[2]) # sort by age

[('dave', 'B', 10), ('jane', 'B', 12), ('john', 'A', 15)]

我的代码：

def print_scores(self):

try:

#opening txt and reading data then breaking data into list separated by "-"

f = open(appdata + "scores.txt", "r")

fo = f.read()

f.close()

userlist = fo.split('

')

sheet_list = []

for user in userlist:

sheet = user.split('-')

if len(sheet) != 2:

continue

sheet_list.append(sheet)

sorted(sheet_list, key = lambda ele : ele[1]) #HERE IS THE COPIED PART!

if len(sheet_list) > 20: # only top 20 scores are printed

sheet_list = sheet_list[len(sheet_list) - 21 :len(sheet_list) - 1]

#prints scores in a nice table

print "name score"

for user in sheet_list:

try:

name = user[0]

score = user[1]

size = len(name)

for x in range(0,14):

if x > size - 1:

sys.stdout.write(" ")

else:

sys.stdout.write(name[x])

sys.stdout.write(score + "

")

except:

print ""

except:

print "no scores to be displayed!"

错误是得到的打印列表与txt中的完全一样,好像排序功能没有做任何事情！

例：

txt文件中的数据：

Jerry-1284

Tom-264

Barry-205

omgwtfbbqhaxomgsss-209

Giraffe-1227

什么印刷：

Name Score

Jerry 1284

Tom 264

Barry 205

omgstfbbqhaxom209

Giraffe 1227
