Sorting Documentation

[pinkfloydhomer]

I want to read a little bit about sorting in Python (sorted() and
method sort()). But I can't seem to find anything in the documentation
at the homepage?

For example, where can I find the official documentation on the
list.sort() method?

sorted() is a function that works on arbitrary sequences, and is
described in the "built-in functions" chapter:

http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/built-in-funcs.html

sort() is a list method, and is documented under sequences:

http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/typesseq-mutable.html

Sorted() is documented here -
<http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html#l2h-66>.

(All found from here, BTW - <http://docs.python.org/lib/genindex.html>.)
