I am trying to make a function “sortListByClass” and just been stuck, like crazy. I’ve been writing and rewriting it forawrds and backwards with no luck.
def sortListByClass(listToSort, NumbersToSortBy):
I have a list that is structured in a specific way
NumbersToSortBy = [‘99’, ‘100’, ‘103’, ‘105’]
listToSort = [‘105’, ‘99’, ‘100’, ‘100’, ‘103’, ‘99’] it keeps going for a while
I need to feed both of them into the function and get index values out
something that would look like this
[1, 5, 2, 3, 4, 0]
I am then going to use this “matrix” to organize 3 other lists by, which I know how to do.Somehow I am hitting a wall with this one.
After a lot of googling around, I found this
indices = [i for i, x in enumerate(my_list) if x == value]
And I cannot grasp how that is working when I feed it just one value, thus I cannot figure out how to deconstruct it and make it into a loop that works as a function.
Very new to python, any help is appreciated.
