Coding Quiz - Sorting Tuples by Score

In this coding quiz, you are tasked with writing a function that sorts a list of tuples consisting of names and scores in descending order by the score.

For example, in the input list [('Tom', 70), ('Jane', 88), ('Max', 95), ('Alice', 85)], the first tuple's Tom represents a name, and 70 represents a score.

Sort this list in descending order by the score, resulting in [('Max', 95), ('Jane', 88), ('Alice', 85), ('Tom', 70)].


Write the Code
def solution(scores): # Write your code here return



Constraints

  • The list contains at least one tuple.

  • Each tuple consists of a string and an integer, where the string represents a person's name and the integer represents the score.




Example

  • Input: [('Tom', 70), ('Jane', 88), ('Max', 95), ('Alice', 85)]

  • Output: [('Max', 95), ('Jane', 88), ('Alice', 85), ('Tom', 70)]
