[Solved] How to sort a list and put it in absolute value

by


You can use the map and abs functions to accomplish this:

In [1]: sorted(map(abs, lista))
Out[1]: [1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8]

To do this with the code you wrote, you can

# The list defined above
lista = [a,b,c,d]

# Sorted from least to greatest absolute value
sorted_abs_list = sorted(map(abs, lista))

# Sorted from greatest to least absolute value
sorted_abs_list = sorted(map(abs, lista), reverse=True)
