Don't use count method A couple of points here: 1) In general, people on mailing lists are not into doing homework problems for other people. 2) If you're going to bring us a homework problem, at least describe the whole problem up front. It really doesn't help to dribble out new requirements one at a time. 3) rustompm...@gmail.com already posted a pointer to the wikipedia article describing the required algorithm in detail. 4) I don't know what "no built-in functions should be used" means. I assume it means, "don't call sort()"? If you can't even call int.__lt__(), it's going to be really hard to do this. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
