#Python Sort By Length of Words or other elements
#We will use lambda function here

#This function below will sort a list of words based on thier lengths

my_Words = ['Elephant', 'Bee', 'hipopotamus', 'Ant', "Goat", "Tiger"]
my_Words.sort() # Default sorting is by alphabetical order: ['Ant', 'Bee', 'Elephant', 'Goat', 'Tiger', 'hipopotamus']
print(my_Words)
my_Words.sort(key = lambda i: len(i)) #Sorting by length of each word. 'i' serving as an iterator
print(my_Words) # ['Ant', 'Bee', 'Goat', 'Tiger', 'Elephant', 'hipopotamus']
