Simple module to sort an iterable by apparel size and generate an iterable as well (...XS, S, M, L, XL...).
- Support for different formatted sizes ('M', 'Large', 'XXX', '4XL')'
- Custom Size dictionaries (other than XS/S/M/L/XL, etc.) (ie: i18n)
- Utility functions to generate list of apparel sizes.
Time Complexity: O(N Log N)
Space Complexity: O(N) + O(SC) where SC is length of size chart
By all means, this module is likely overkill if you have a known or limited set of Sizes
that you need to support, such as ['2XL', 'L', 'M', 'S', 'XL', 'XS'].
You can achieve this type of sort in 3-lines:
array = ['2XL', 'L', 'M', 'S', 'XL', 'XS']
array_values = {'XS': 0, 'S': 25, 'M': 50, 'L': 75, 'XL': 100, '2XL': 140}
sorted_array = sorted(array, key=lambda x: array_values[x])Where this module becomes useful is when you don't control the sizes: A new "X" size is added (ie: 4XS), need to support say 'XXS'/ '2XL' or 'Small' / 'M' in same iterable, and/or have a mixture of sizes, verbose sizes and numerics ('S', 4, 'Medium', 6).
