Change of order Python2 and Python3

[TrustyTony]

Ordering objects is one thing that is changing as we will move to Python3

Python 2.6 gives interesting results

a=[1,'23',('a','b'),False,[[]],[],'bc',['ab','34'],45,'0',{},True]
>>> sorted(a)
[False, 1, True, 45, {}, [], [[]], ['ab', '34'], '0', '23', 'bc', ('a', 'b')]
>>> print True==1
True
>>> print False==0
True
>>> print False==''
False

Python3 has sense to give up but still gives interesting results

It has never made much sense to sort mixed type lists. So it's nice to see that Python3 put a stop to it ...

mixed_list = [3, 2, 'a', (5, 2,), 'd', 'c']

print(sorted(mixed_list))

"""my result -->
Python2
[2, 3, 'a', 'c', 'd', (5, 2)]
Python3
TypeError: unorderable types: str() < int()
"""
