How can I summarize this Python code in one line?

Question

I have Python code in multiple lines. I want to summarize in one line without ';' and 'exec function'

input_string = str(input())
array = []
for i in range(len(input_string)):
    if (ord(input_string[i]) - 97) % 2 == 0:
        array.append(input_string[i])
    else:
        array.append(input_string[i].upper())
array.sort(reverse=True)
answer = ' '.join(array)
print(answer)

Why would you want to take something that's readable and functional then obfuscate it for no apparent reason? — DarkKnight, Jan 07 '22 at 13:21
Oh no, there is a match between me and my friend judged by a third friend. — Hamed AK47, Jan 07 '22 at 13:27

Well, here is the two lines solution:

array = [i if (ord(i) - 97) % 2 == 0 else i.upper() 
            for i in str(input())]
print(" ".join(sorted(array, reverse=True)))

Or as you said:

print(" ".join(sorted([i if (ord(i) - 97) % 2 == 0 else i.upper() for i in str(input())], reverse=True)))

OP asked for a one liner, not two – raiyan22 Jan 07 '22 at 13:55

Thanks @OMY. My answer is: print(" ".join(sorted([i if (ord(i) - 97) % 2 == 0 else i.upper() for i in str(input())], reverse=True))) – Hamed AK47 Jan 07 '22 at 14:12

You don't have to subtract 97 before applying mod 2 in the condition since it will merely invert the result and applying upper on characters below 97 will not change them.

so this should do the trick:

' '.join(sorted(c if ord(c)%2 else c.upper() for c in input_string))[::-1]
