When you have a cold or flu, your nose drips.
Some sexually transmitted diseases make your genitals drip.

Well, others in the thread have observed the same thing, so maybe it
doesn't matter. But the quoted code had onl

Maybe he meant, that this:
if v1.x < v2.x and v1.y > v2.y
should be:
if v1.x < v2.x and v1.y < v2.y
?

Aha. Thanks.
PS
For years I thought that song's title "No Woman No Cry" by Bob Marley
means "No Woman -- No Cry". As if a man got rid of his woman and
stopped
crying, out of her bad behaviour etc.
It turned out to mean "No, woman,.. no cry..."

Here "meaningful order" is:
if
elephant "a[i]" is smarter than elephant "a[j]"
then "i" must be strictly less than "j"
Of course, to the same effect we could sort them simply
by sizes, but then time of sorting would increase by ~
2 times -- due to decreasing of number of equally smart
things.
But

It could mean that the times are not just different, they're _too_

Yes (I mean "No"): new-style's much faster
And now it's elephants instead of vectors.
Def: an elephant is smarter than another one IIF
its size is strictly less but its IQ is strictly
greater
I.e. you can't compar

The second method repeatedly looks up left_item.__class__.__cmp__
