sorted(iterable): Return a new sorted list from the items in iterable.
CODE
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({‘A’:[1,1,3,2,6,2,8]})
a = df[‘A’].unique()
print(sorted(a))
OUTPUT
[1, 2, 3, 6, 8]
sort sorts inplace so returns nothing:
In [54]:
df = pd.DataFrame({‘A’:[1,1,3,2,6,2,8]})
a = df[‘A’].unique()
a.sort()
a
Out[54]:
array([1, 2, 3, 6, 8], dtype=int64)
So you have to call print a again after the call to sort.
Eg.:
In [55]:
df = pd.DataFrame({‘A’:[1,1,3,2,6,2,8]})
a = df[‘A’].unique()
a.sort()
print(a)
[1 2 3 6 8]
