Sort Words in Alphabetic Order

Course- Python >

In this example, we illustrate how words can be sorted lexicographically (alphabetic order).

Source Code


# Program to sort alphabetically the words form a string provided by the user

# take input from the user
my_str = input("Enter a string: ")

# breakdown the string into a list of words
words = my_str.split()

# sort the list
words.sort()

# display the sorted words
for word in words:
   print(word)

Output


Enter a string: Hello this Is an Example With cased letters
Example
Hello
Is
With
an
cased
letters
this

 

 
 

In this program, we take a string form the user. Using the split() method the string is converted into a list of words. The split() method splits the string at whitespaces. The list of words is then sorted using the sort() method and all the words are displayed.
