Tim Peters added the comment: I'm at best -0 on the idea: very easy to get the effect without it, and hard to imagine it's needed frequently. `sorted()` is also very easy to mimic, but is used often by all sorts of code. For example, to display output in a `for key in sorted(dict):` loop, or to create a throwaway sorted list for testing, like:
assert data2[low: high] == sorted(data[low: high]) In my own code, I find hundreds of uses of `sorted()`, but only a few dozen of `random.shuffle()`, and in none of the latter cases would `shuffled()` have been useful. ---------- nosy: +tim.peters stage: -> needs patch type: -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27964> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
