sort_by_candidate

jwst.associations.lib.product_utils.sort_by_candidate(asns)[source]

Sort associations by candidate.

Parameters:
asnslist of Association

List of associations.

Returns:
sorted_by_candidatelist of Association

New list of the associations sorted.

Notes

The current definition of candidates allows strictly alphabetical sorting:

aXXXX > cXXXX > oXXX

If this changes, a comparison function will need be implemented.
