I'm wondering there is already a function in python library that can

[1, 3]
[2, 9]
[10,13]

I want to get the following merged intervals.
[1,9]
[10,13]
Could somebody let me know if there is a function in the python
library?
I vaguely recall a similar question a long time ago. Peng, is this a
homework assignment?
Perhaps we should add a standard module called "homework". It can have
functions for all the different homework assignments we see on
c.l.python. We can simply point people to this module and then can
include the code in their answers.
If it's possible, there was/is this guy over in clc.c++ who responded/responds
to homework questions with the most advanced, convoluted and, except for
misleading names, technically correct solutions.
