Mark Dickinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: One case I've been thinking about is that of maintaining a list of Decimal objects that are sorted by absolute value. For this, having to create a list of (abs(x), x) pairs just seems clumsy compared to using a key argument to bisect.
Perhaps this is a contrived use case, but it doesn't seem totally implausible. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4356> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
