how to return index of a sorted list?
<p>I need  to sort a list and then return a list with the index of the sorted items in the list. For example, if the list I want to sort is [2,3,1,4,5], I need [2,0,1,3,4] to be returned. </p>

<p>This question was posted on bytes, but i thought i would repost it here.

<p>my specific need to sort a list of objects based on a property of the objects. i then need to re-order a corresponding list to match the order of the newly sorted list. </p>

<p>is there a good way to do this?</p>
