How do I sort a dictionary by value?

You can use the sorted() function and pass it the dictionary, along with the key parameter set to a lambda function that returns the value from the dictionary. For example:

You can also use the sorted() function in combination with the items() method of the dictionary to sort the dictionary by value in ascending order:

If you want to sort the dictionary in descending order, you can use the reverse parameter of the sorted() function:
