Python list sort in descending order

This will give you a sorted version of the array.

sorted(timestamps, reverse=True)

If you want to sort in-place:

timestamps.sort(reverse=True)

python sorting reverse

In one line, using a lambda:

timestamps.sort(key=lambda x: time.strptime(x, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')[0:6], reverse=True)

Passing a function to list.sort:

def foo(x):    return time.strptime(x, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')[0:6]timestamps.sort(key=foo, reverse=True)

python sorting reverse

You can simply do this:

timestamps.sort(reverse=True)
