I just want to ask what would I use to loop my code? I want the operation to loop and will ask again if to continue or not..

What I have tried:

Python

list=input("Enter your list:")
print("Unsorted:", list.split())

a=list
print("Sorted Ascending Order:")
print sorted(a, key=None, reverse=False)

print("Sorted Descending Order:")
print sorted(a, key=None, reverse=True)

There are only two loop types in Python: for and while: Loops - Learn Python - Free Interactive Python Tutorial[^]
A for loop is used when you want to repeat some code a specific number of times.
A while loop is used when you want to repeat some code until something specific changes, or happens.

Since you don't know in advance how many times the user will want to answer "Yes, please continue" a for loop is not likely to be useful.

Try, for instance (Note: it is Python 3 code)

Python

wish_to_continue = 'Y'
while wish_to_continue == 'Y':
  list=input("Enter your list:")
  print("Unsorted:", list.split())

  a=list
  print("Sorted Ascending Order:")
  print(sorted(a, key=None, reverse=False))

  print("Sorted Descending Order:")
  print(sorted(a, key=None, reverse=True))

  wish_to_continue = input("Do you wish to continue (Y)?")
