Arbitrary sorting in Python?

[TallOne123]

Say that I have a list of [9,4,'10',5,1,'7','2',6,'3','8']. If I run the following function on that list 

def arbitrary_sort(alist : list) -> list:
    return(sorted((sorted(alist, key=(lambda x: x if type(x) is int else False))), key=(lambda x: int(x) if type(x) is str else False), reverse = True))
    

I'll get an output of ['10', '8', '7', '3', '2', 1, 4, 5, 6, 9] but the output SHOULD be [1, 4, 5, 6, 9, '10', '8', '7', '3', '2']. I feel like I'm almost there, but I can't see where I'm going wrong. Can I get some sort of hint as to how I can essentially have the order of ints first, and then the strings? 

 

Note that I'm restricted to just writing out the answer in one line for this question.

Why not just do: 

def arbitrary_sort(list):
	return sorted(list)

 

EDIT: nvm....

Let me know if this works:

def arbsort(lst):
    return sorted([i for i in lst if type(i) is int])+reversed([s for s in lst if type(s) is str])

Edit: I know it won't... let me fix it. But I think you can see where I'm going with it.

def arbsort(lst):
    intlist = sorted([i for i in lst if type(i) is int])
    strlist = [str(st) for st in reversed(sorted([int(s) for s in lst if type(s) is str]))]
    returnable = intlist+strlist
    print returnable
arbsort([1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 4, 2, '1', '6', '3', '2'])

Modify that and then mark this post as the answer to the thread
