alphabetically correct so this function
3,127.74
4.74
which you pass just by name you do not
3,130.2
5.1
pass in parentheses at the end is called
3,132.48
4.98
by the sorted function in order to
3,135.3
5.1
figure out for you how to compare these
3,137.46
6.359
same values how can we use nested
3,140.4
7.5
dictionaries I have read about the
3,143.819
5.821
nested dictionaries what is the
3,147.9
3.6
difference between nested dictionaries
3,149.64
5.28
and the dictionary inside a list I think
3,151.5
5.04
it is sure
3,154.92
3.84
um uh so we are using a list of
3,156.54
4.26
dictionaries why because each of those
3,158.76
3.839
dictionaries represents a student and a
3,160.8
3.72
student has a name and a house and we
3,162.599
3.361
want to I claim maintain that
3,164.52
3.539
Association and it's a list of students
3,165.96
3.72
because we've got multiple students four
3,168.059
4.5
in this case you could create us a
3,169.68
4.379
structure that is a dictionary of
3,172.559
3.121
dictionaries but I would argue it just
3,174.059
3.3
doesn't solve a problem I don't need a
3,175.68
3.179
dictionary of dictionary I need a list
3,177.359
4.561
of key value pairs right now that's all
3,178.859
5.301
so let me propose if we go back to
3,181.92
4.919
students.pi here and we revert back to
3,184.16
5.199
the approach where we have get name as
3,186.839
5.341
the function both used and defined here
3,189.359
4.921
and that function Returns the student's
3,192.18
4.679
name what happens to be clear is that
3,194.28
5.52
the sorted function will use the value
3,196.859
5.941
of key get name in this case calling
3,199.8
5.759
that function on every dictionary in the
3,202.8
5.46
list that it's supposed to soar and that
3,205.559
5.341
function get name Returns the string
3,208.26
4.799
that sorted will actually use to decide
3,210.9
3.719
whether things go in this order left
3,213.059
3.841
right or in this order right left it
3,214.619
4.381
alphabetizes things based on that return
3,216.9
5.04
value so notice that I'm not calling the
3,219
4.8
function get name here with parentheses
3,221.94
4.139
I'm passing it in only by its name so
3,223.8
5.1
that the sorted function can call that
3,226.079
5.581
get name function for me now it turns
3,228.9
4.679
out as always if you're defining
3,231.66
3.419
something be it a variable or in this
3,233.579
3.601
case a function and then immediately
3,235.079
5.28
using it but never once again needing
3,237.18
5.22
the name of that function like get name
3,240.359
4.141
we can actually tighten this code up
3,242.4
4.56
further I can actually do this I can get
3,244.5
4.26
rid of the get name function altogether
3,246.96
4.02
just like I could get rid of a variable
3,248.76
4.5
that isn't strictly necessary and
3,250.98
4.74
instead of passing key the name of a
3,253.26
5.28
function I can actually Pass Key what's
3,255.72
5.22
called an a Lambda function which is an
3,258.54
4.2
anonymous function a function that just
3,260.94
3.899
has no name why because you don't need
3,262.74
3.599
to give it a name if you're only going
3,264.839
3.72
to call it in one place and the syntax
3,266.339
4.141
for this in Python is a little weird but
3,268.559
4.56
if I do key equals literally the word
3,270.48
5.639
Lambda then something like student which
3,273.119
4.801
is the name of the parameter I expect
3,276.119
4.081
this function to take and then I don't
3,277.92
4.56
even type the return key i instead just
3,280.2
5.94
say student bracket name so what am I
3,282.48
6.3
doing here with my code this code here
3,286.14
5.219
that I've highlighted is equivalent to
3,288.78
4.799
the get name function I implemented a
3,291.359
4.44
moment ago the syntax is admittedly a
3,293.579
4.081
little different I don't use def I
3,295.799
3.54
didn't even give it a name like get name
3,297.66
3.78
i instead I'm using this other keyword
3,299.339
4.5
in pi python called Lambda which says
3,301.44
4.619
Hey python here comes a function but it
3,303.839
4.74
has no name it's Anonymous that function
3,306.059
4.74
takes a parameter I could call it
3,308.579
3.961
anything I want I'm calling it student
3,310.799
4.741
why because this function that's passed
3,312.54
6.299
in as key is called on every one of the
3,315.54
5.16
students in that list every one of the
3,318.839
4.381
dictionaries in that list what do I want
3,320.7
4.619
this Anonymous function to return well
3,323.22
4.5
given a student I want to index into
3,325.319
4.98
that dictionary and access their name so
3,327.72
4.92
that the string Hermione and Harry and
3,330.299
4.981
Ron and Draco is ultimately returned and
3,332.64
4.62
that's what the sorted function uses to
3,335.28
4.5
decide how to sort these bigger
3,337.26
4.5
dictionaries that have other Keys like
3,339.78
3.72
house as well
3,341.76
3.72
so if I now go back to my terminal
3,343.5
4.5
window and run python of students.pi it
3,345.48
5.22
still seems to work the same but it's
3,348
4.38
arguably a little better design because
3,350.7
3.599
I didn't waste lines of Code by defining
3,352.38
3.66
some other function calling it in one
3,354.299
4.32
and only one place I've done it all sort
3,356.04
4.98
