index_versorted
(seq, key=None, reverse=False, as_path=None, alg=0)¶ Return the list of the indexes used to sort the input sequence of version numbers.
Sorts a sequence of version, but returns a list of sorted the indexes and not the sorted list. This list of indexes can be used to sort multiple lists by the sorted order of the given sequence.
This is a wrapper around
index_natsorted(seq, number_type=None)
.Parameters: seq: iterable
The sequence to sort.
key: callable, optional
A key used to determine how to sort each element of the sequence. It is not applied recursively. It should accept a single argument and return a single value.
reverse : {True, False}, optional
Return the list in reversed sorted order. The default is False.
as_path : {True, False}, optional
Depreciated as of version 3.5.0 and will become an undocumented keyword-only argument in 4.0.0. Please use the alg argument for all future development. See
ns
class documentation for details.alg : ns enum, optional
This option is used to control which algorithm natsort uses when sorting. For details into these options, please see the
ns
class documentation. The default is ns.FLOAT.Returns: out : tuple
The ordered indexes of the sequence.

Examples
Use index_versorted just like the builtin sorted:
>>> a = ['num4.0.2', 'num3.4.1', 'num3.4.2'] >>> index_versorted(a) [1, 2, 0]
