我创建了一个更通用的函数，它根据另一个列表对两个以上的列表进行排序，灵感来自@Whatang的答案。

def parallel_sort(*lists):
    """
    Sorts the given lists, based on the first one.
    :param lists: lists to be sorted

    :return: a tuple containing the sorted lists
    """

    # Create the initially empty lists to later store the sorted items
    sorted_lists = tuple([] for _ in range(len(lists)))

    # Unpack the lists, sort them, zip them and iterate over them
    for t in sorted(zip(*lists)):
        # list items are now sorted based on the first list
        for i, item in enumerate(t):    # for each item...
            sorted_lists[i].append(item)  # ...store it in the appropriate list

    return sorted_lists

实际上，我来这里是为了对值匹配的列表进行排序。

list_a = ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
list_b = ['baz', 'bar', 'foo']
sorted(list_b, key=lambda x: list_a.index(x))
# ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']

下面是Whatangs的答案，如果你想获得两个排序的列表(python3)。

X = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h", "i"]
Y = [ 0,   1,   1,    0,   1,   2,   2,   0,   1]

Zx, Zy = zip(*[(x, y) for x, y in sorted(zip(Y, X))])

print(list(Zx))  # [0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2]
print(list(Zy))  # ['a', 'd', 'h', 'b', 'c', 'e', 'i', 'f', 'g']

记住Zx和Zy是元组。 我也在想是否有更好的方法来做到这一点。

警告:如果你用空列表运行它，它会崩溃。

More_itertools有一个并行排序可迭代对象的工具:

鉴于

from more_itertools import sort_together


X = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h", "i"]
Y = [ 0,   1,   1,    0,   1,   2,   2,   0,   1]

Demo

sort_together([Y, X])[1]
# ('a', 'd', 'h', 'b', 'c', 'e', 'i', 'f', 'g')

一个简单的句子。

list_a = [5,4,3,2,1]
list_b = [1,1.5,1.75,2,3,3.5,3.75,4,5]

假设你想让列表a匹配列表b。

orderedList =  sorted(list_a, key=lambda x: list_b.index(x))

当需要将较小的列表与较大的列表进行排序时，这是很有用的。假设较大的列表包含较小列表中的所有值，就可以做到这一点。

list1 = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i']
list2 = [0,1,1,0,1,2,2,0,1]

output=[]
cur_loclist = []

获取list2中的唯一值

list_set = set(list2)

查找list2中索引的loc

list_str = ''.join(str(s) for s in list2)

索引在list2中的位置使用cur_loclist跟踪

[0, 3, 7, 1, 2, 4, 8, 5, 6]

for i in list_set:
cur_loc = list_str.find(str(i))

while cur_loc >= 0:
    cur_loclist.append(cur_loc)
    cur_loc = list_str.find(str(i),cur_loc+1)

print(cur_loclist)

for i in range(0,len(cur_loclist)):
output.append(list1[cur_loclist[i]])
print(output)
