There is no bug. It's a bit confusing that the method sort on a list object returns None, but it is doing an in-place, (in memory) sort of the list, thus modifying the list. The function sorted however, will return a new list object. The following interpreter session will show this: >>> l = [3, 2, 1] >>> type(l.sort()) <class 'NoneType'> >>> print(l) [1, 2, 3] >>> new_list = [7, 5, 4] >>> sorted(new_list) [4, 5, 7] >>> new_list [7, 5, 4] ---------- assignee: -> terry.reedy components: +IDLE nosy: +Dude-X, terry.reedy -SilentGhost type: behavior -> compile error _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37443> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
