Different Solutions

There are always many ways to solve a programming task. In this exercise you will practice to read, understand, and comment on different solutions to a coding challenge, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.

The challenge

Write a script that sorts a list of tuples based on the number value in the tuple. For example:

unsorted_list = [('first_element', 4), ('second_element', 2), ('third_element', 6)]
sorted_list = [('second_element', 2), ('first_element', 4), ('third_element', 6)]

Your turn!

1. Clone this repository!
2. Read over all solutions one-by-one
3. Create in-line code comments on the GitHub commits
   • what is done well?
   • what can be improved? (unnecessary code? style? logic? etc.)
4. Can you find yet another solution to the task? If so, add it to your repo!
