Sorting strings by a substring in Python [duplicate]

Question

I have a list of strings in python that looks like this:

• Name number number 4-digit number

How can I sort it by the last number?

Answer 1

Like that:

sorted(your_list, lambda x: int(x.split()[-1]))

Answer 2

my_list = ['abc 12 34 3333',
           'def 21 43 2222',
           'fgh 21 43 1111']

my_list.sort(key=lambda x:int(x.split()[-1]))

my_list is now: ['fgh 21 43 1111', 'def 21 43 2222', 'abc 12 34 3333']
