YSQL ORDER BY
Sort the Result
Use the ORDER BY statement to sort the result in ascending or descending order.
The ORDER BY keyword sorts the result ascending by default. To sort the result in descending order, use the DESC keyword.

import mysql.connector

mydb = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="yourusername",
password="yourpassword",
database="mydatabase"
)
mycursor = mydb.cursor()
sql = "SELECT * FROM customers ORDER BY name"
mycursor.execute(sql)
myresult = mycursor.fetchall()
for x in myresult:
print(x)

(3, 'Amy', 'Apple st 652')
(11, 'Ben', 'Park Lane 38')
(7, 'Betty', 'Green Grass 1')
(13, 'Chuck', 'Main Road 989')
