Python was designed lot of time ago by Guido that I think didn't know much about functional programming. So they have first added an in-place sort() and later they have added a more functional sorted(). D2 is more functional than Python2, and I think the behaviour of sorted() is better to be the default one in D2 :-) Bye, bearophile
