Switch branches/tags

Name already in use

A tag already exists with the provided branch name. Many Git commands accept both tag and branch names, so creating this branch may cause unexpected behavior. Are you sure you want to create this branch?

Given a list of non negative integers, arrange them such that they form the largest number.

Example 1:

Input: [10,2]
Output: "210"
Example 2:

Input: [3,30,34,5,9]
Output: "9534330"
Note: The result may be very large, so you need to return a string instead of an integer.


My code:

class LargerNumKey(str):
    def __lt__(x, y):
        return x+y > y+x
        
class Solution:
    def largestNumber(self, nums):
        largest_num = ''.join(sorted(map(str, nums), key=LargerNumKey))
        return '0' if largest_num[0] == '0' else largest_num
