How to Sort a 2D Array by Length in Python Using Bubble Sort

Sorting data is a fundamental task in programming, and when it comes to handling arrays, the requirements can sometimes get a bit more complex. One such requirement is sorting multiple arrays based on their lengths. In this post, we'll explore how to create a Python function that sorts 2D arrays (or multiple arrays) by their lengths using a classic algorithm called bubble sort.

Understanding the Problem

The goal is to create a function named compare_lengths that accepts three arrays as input and returns them sorted in ascending order based on their lengths. For instance, if the function is provided with the following input arrays:

[1, 2, 3] (length 3)

[10, 20, 30, 40] (length 4)

[65, 32, 7] (length 3)

You would want the output to either be:

([1, 2, 3], [65, 32, 7], [10, 20, 30, 40])
or

([65, 32, 7], [1, 2, 3], [10, 20, 30, 40])

The sorting is based on the length of each array rather than the actual contents of the arrays.

Implementing the Solution

Step 1: Define the Function

Let's start by defining the function compare_lengths. This will take three arrays as input.

Step 2: Bubble Sort Function

Next, we implement the bubble sort algorithm. Here’s how it works:

We will compare two adjacent arrays and swap them if the first array is longer than the second.

This process is repeated until no more swaps are needed, meaning the arrays are sorted.

Here is the bubble sort implementation specifically for sorting by length:

Combining the Code

Putting it all together, your complete function would look like this:

Conclusion

By following the steps above, you can effectively sort multiple arrays by their lengths using bubble sort in Python. This method can be easily adapted for larger data sets or a different number of arrays by modifying the input and the bubble sort functionality. Sorting by length is a valuable technique that can help organize your data for further processing or analysis.

Happy coding!
