Sorting in Python

Python provides robust tools for sorting and managing sorted data, including list.sort() and sorted() methods. Both methods use Timsort, a hybrid sorting algorithm, and have complexities of O(n) for best case, O(n log n) for average and worst case. Python's sort() and sorted() are stable by design, making them useful for multi-key sorting. For more complex sorting needs, consider using the sortedcontainers or heapq modules.
