Python list has a sort() method which sort the list ascendly. The sorted() function can sort list and other iterables.

>>> x = [65,3,43,90,6,5]
>>> x.sort()
>>> x

[3,5,6,43,65,90]

>>> x = [65,3,43,90,6,5]
>>> sorted(x)

[3,5,6,43,65,90]

>>> x = {3: "Jeff", 98: "Lynn", 32: "Jonanson"}
>>> x

{32: 'Jonanson', 98: 'Lynn', 3: 'Jeff'}

>>> sorted(x)

[3, 32, 98]

>>> y = sorted(x)
>>> for i in y: print(i, x[i])
...

3 Jeff
32 Jonanson
98 Lynn
