Yep. Seems like there should be a sort() for array.array objects, especially since they implement pop(), insert(), extend(), etc. Also, all data types corresponding to array typecodes can be compared in a sort: <http://docs.python.org/lib/module-array.html>. In the mean time, try my_sorted_array = array.array(my_array.typecode, sorted(my_array)) James -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
