I’m trying to implement a sorting algorithm in Python for a list of integers. However, I want to sort the list based on the absolute difference between each element and a given target value. For example, if my target value is 5 and my list is [10, 3, 8, 1], the sorted list should be [3, 8, 10, 1]. How can I achieve this efficiently?
