What special method must be implemented for sorting to work in python

Pp 4.1 design and implement a class called sphere that contains instance data that represents the sphere’s diameter. define the sphere constructor to accept and initialize the diameter and include getter and setter methods for the diameter. include methods that calculate and return the volume and surface area of the sphere (see pp 3.5 for the formulas). include a tostring method that returns a one-line description of the sphere. create a driver class called multisphere, whose main method instantiates and updates several sphere objects.

Assume the existence of a bankaccount class. define a derived class, savingsaccount that contains two instance variables: the first a double, named interestrate, and the second an integer named interesttype. the value of the interesttype variable can be 1 for simple interest and 2 for compound interest. there is also a constructor that accepts two parameters: a double that is used to initialize the interestrate variable, and a string that you may assume will contain either "simple", or "compound", and which should be used to initialize the interesttype variable appropriately. there should also be a pair of functions getinterestrate and getinteresttype that return the values of the corresponding data members (as double and int respectively).
