Josh Rosenberg added the comment: Is it even legal to have non-string keys in a JSON object? If they must be strings, and they must be unique, I don't think a key argument is necessary (and it would save the generation of the key array; not doing the work is faster than doing the work more efficiently after all), since the default tuple comparison would work fine; the first element would always be unequal, so the second elements would never be compared, right?
I'm not 100% on this with the rich comparison operator approach, but my attempts to trigger a failure haven't worked (TimSort or the tuple comparison, or both, are probably smarter about this than I am). ---------- nosy: +josh.r _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23493> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
