Sorting different keys and directions are trivial with sorted(). I'm not sure what different "algorithms" mean, with sorted you implement a function that returns a sorting key, that sorting key is then used to sort. It should be possible to sort according to any algorithm that way. //Lennart _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
