A big Thanks to Bucky. You are doing a great job. You are a great teacher. I have watched your complete series of python. And i gotta admit that i have developed a great interest in this language. God bless Bucky!

How come so little views??? This is free education. Thank you Bucky!

[Philippborchert]

Wow, was just looking for that like a week ago and couldn't find a proper answer... thanks mate!

[hayleymarie]

from what i've heard of the term, 'ship' is short for relationship i guess?? so like
"i ship brangelina"
or
"i ship (insert name) and (insert name)"
also, love the videos!! <3

This method of sorting also works with three attribute keys, maybe more, as far as I can tell, while tinkering with it:

from operator import itemgetter


users2 = [{'ticker': 'AAPL', 'price': 201, 'mn': 'AA'},
{'ticker': 'GOOG', 'price': 800, 'mn': 'GG'},
{'ticker': 'F', 'price': 54, 'mn': 'FF'},
{'ticker': 'MSFT', 'price': 313, 'mn': 'MS'},
{'ticker': 'MSFT', 'price': 123, 'mn': 'MA'},
{'ticker': 'MSFT', 'price': 123, 'mn': 'MB'},
{'ticker': 'TUNA', 'price': 68, 'mn': 'TN'}, ]

for x in sorted(users2, key=itemgetter('ticker', 'price', 'mn')):
print(x)

"Oh my god Autocomplete, can you not just type the rest of the code for me?"

Hey Bucky!!! thanks for the tutorial, as you mentioned it is the best tutorial in the universe, indeed it is. Just a quick question, As I am not able to find your source code after tutorial 41, so can you please share the link where I can find the tutorial source code from 42 to 56 tutorial...Thanks

Just a question,

why sometimes the results from print appears as :

{'fname': 'Sally', 'lname': 'Jones'}

and other times as:

{'lname': 'Jones', 'fname': 'Sally'}

[vishal]

if you are getting errors use first letter capital for all or dont use it .

from operator import itemgetter

users = [
{'fname': 'Buble', 'lname': 'Chew'},
{'fname': 'Ruby', 'lname': 'Red'},
{'fname': 'Red', 'lname': 'Baron'}
]

for x in sorted(users, key=itemgetter('fname')):
print(x)


for x in sorted (users, key=itemgetter('fname', 'lname')):
print(x)

I know to ship from poker. If you are about to win a poker tournament you are going to ship it. Or if you won, you can say "I shipped it"

[maheepthephenom]
