Note that abs () is the built-in function that returns the absolute value of the number. We can achieve this by passing key=abs to sorted () function.
Let's say we want to sort a sequence of numbers based on their absolute value, we don't care about their being positive or negative. The idea is to pass the dictionary's items to the sorted. That means even if you sort the dictionary, you can't store it in a way that preserves the ordering. Dictionaries in Python are unordered before version 3.7. This post will discuss how to sort a dictionary by its key in Python. The code to sort dictionary using item method would be: print (sorted(my_ems())) The output thus generated will be a list of tuple sorted by dictionary keys.
