python sort list using lambda function -

i have list this:

[ 'c:\\users\\rash\\downloads\\programs\\a.txt', 'c:\\users\\rash\\downloads\\a.txt', 'c:\\users\\rash\\a.txt', 'c:\\users\\ab.txt', 'c:\\users\\aa.txt' ]

and want sort based on 2 conditions:

sort no of "\" nowadays in string. by alphabets.

my end result should this:

[ 'c:\\users\\aa.txt', 'c:\\users\\ab.txt', 'c:\\users\\rash\\a.txt', 'c:\\users\\rash\\downloads\\a.txt', 'c:\\users\\rash\\downloads\\programs\\a.txt' ]

i learning lambda function in python , wrote code:

print(sorted(mylist, key=lambda x:x.count("\\")))

but code sorts count of "\". not sort alphabets. result seeing key "'c:\users\ab.txt'" before key "'c:\users\aa.txt'".

i sort list 2 times, want in 1 line. should add together in lambda code ? since new whole "lambda" thing, cannot think of way this. replying!! :)

return sequence key function contains items want sort by.

key=lambda x: (x.count('\\'), x.split('\\'))
