Sort a list by elements of another list












7












$begingroup$


I know there are a plenty of other questions here which appear to be similar, however I did not found anything which could give me a hint.



I have two lists:



list1 = {{A, 12}, {B, 10}, {C, 4}}; (*ordered according to the second column*)
list2 = {{B, 5}, {A, 4}, {C, 1}}; (*ordered according to the second column*)


Now I want to sort list2according to the list1-order so the output should be:



(* {{A, 4}, {B, 5}, {C, 1}} *)

    Is there a better example to show what you want? Doesn't Sort[list2] give the desired output?
