Sort the Dates

In this challenge, sort a list containing a series of dates given as strings. Each date is given in the format DD-MM-YYYY_HH:MM:

"12-02-2012_13:44"

The priority of criteria used for sorting will be:

• Year
• Month
• Day
• Hours
• Minutes

Given a list lst and a string mode, implement a function that returns:

• if mode is equal to "ASC", the list lst sorted in ascending order.
• if mode is equal to "DSC", the list lst sorted in descending order.

Examples

sort_dates(["10-02-2018_12:30", "10-02-2016_12:30", "10-02-2018_12:15"], "ASC") ➞ ["10-02-2016_12:30", "10-02-2018_12:15", "10-02-2018_12:30"]

sort_dates(["10-02-2018_12:30", "10-02-2016_12:30", "10-02-2018_12:15"], "DSC") ➞ ["10-02-2018_12:30", "10-02-2018_12:15", "10-02-2016_12:30"]

sort_dates(["09-02-2000_10:03", "10-02-2000_18:29", "01-01-1999_00:55"], "ASC") ➞ ["01-01-1999_00:55", "09-02-2000_10:03", "10-02-2000_18:29"]

Notes

• Remember: the date is in the format DD-MM-YYYY_HH:MM.
• You can expect only valid formatted dates, without exceptions to handle.
