It's either a queue that can be sorted, or a list with a length limit.
You could fairly easily implement either, because in Python, anything
can be subclassed. But I think possibly the easiest way is to simply
turn your queue into a list when you want to work with it:
>>> import queue
>>> a=queue.Queue(10)
>>> a.put("asdf")
>>> a.put("qwer")
>>> a.put("zxcv")
>>> a.put("1234")
>>> sorted(a.queue)
['1234', 'asdf', 'qwer', 'zxcv']
Though I don't know if this is what you meant. Putting too much onto a
queue.Queue will block. Were you wanting it, instead, to discard
entries? If so, which?
