That works the same way as with keys:
values = dict.values()
values.sort()
You can supply here a compare function so that sort can work in a more
specific way.
If the dict should always be sorted, you could use a list for the values and
a dic for the indices.
Dicts are unsorted by their nature. Having the keys sorted means to be able
to access the values in a sorted way. So, perhaps you could be more specific
about your goals?
