Ok, that one looks more sleak than what I came up with.
Couple of things I learn from your solution, please correct me if I
misunderstood something:
1. list containing other lists will sort itself based on first element
on lists inside ?
2. sort(), pop() is not costly operations
Other than that
Thanks, that looks like Mike's solution except that it uses the
built-in heapq module.
While this one contains less code than Mike's solution it seems to lack
the ability to control the comparison operation, which means it won't
work in my case. I need to both be able to sort on an arbitrary field
