Re: Sorting a List of Lists

events = [['Event URL as String', 'Event Title as String ', Event Date
as Datetime], ...]

I then thought I'd just go events.sort(lambda x,y: x[2]<y[2]) and call
it a day. That didn't work. But then lamda functions like to be very
simple, maybe object subscripts aren't allowed (even though I didn't
get an error). So I wrote a comparison function that looks much as you
would expect:

Comparision functions must return -1, 0 or 1, not a bool.
You may use a key function instead in this case (requires python 2.4 or newer):

events.sort(key=lambda x: x[2])
