sort a list alphabeticaly without changing the original list
#3
please, use meaningful titles, this time I changed it for you.
don't use list as variable name. it's a built-in function and you override it
>>> countries = ['Poland', 'Russia', 'Germany', 'USA', 'China']
>>> sorted(countries)
['China', 'Germany', 'Poland', 'Russia', 'USA']
>>> countries
['Poland', 'Russia', 'Germany', 'USA', 'China']
>>>
