And crucially it is a built-in DSU

That is what the aforementioned key argument to sort is: a built-in
decorate-sort-undecorate.

Since no-one mentioned it and its a favourite of mine, you can use the
decorate-sort-undecorate method, or "Schwartzian Transform"
eg
lst = [[1,4],[3,9],[2,5],[3,2]]
# decorate - ie make a copy of each item with th

note that cmp= isn't needed under 2.4 either. if you leave it out,
your code will be more portable.

since you seem to be using 2.3, the solution is to use a custom
compare function:

>>> lst = [[1,4],[3,9],[2,5],[3,2]]
>>> lst
[[1, 4], [3, 9], [2, 5]
I have a list like [[1,4],[3,9],[2,5],[3,2]]. How can I sort the list
based on the second value in the item?
That is,
I want the list to be:
[[3,2],[1,4],[2,5],[3,9]]
