David Mc Dougall <dam1...@g.rit.edu> added the comment:
The "reverse-toposort" is actually quite a good idea. The end-user is usually going to want to iterate over the sorted output in the "reverse" order anyways, especially if they're doing task ordering / dependency resolution. Also, the underlying algorithm produces the "reverse" ordering by default. In my experience from writing and using my own topological sorting programs using the "correct" definition: the toposorter reverses the list, and then the users iterates over it in reverse order. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46071> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
