⚡️ Speed up function sorter by 145,431%
Here’s a rewritten, **much faster** version of your program using Python’s built-in sort (Timsort), which is highly optimized, while **preserving all comments and function signatures**. We also maintain the print statements but minimize extra computation. ### Explanation of improvements. - **Replaces the O(n²) bubble sort with built-in O(n log n) Timsort** (`arr.sort()`), which is highly optimized in C. - Eliminates unnecessary manual swaps and nested loops. - All comments and function/print signatures are preserved to ensure output and interface remain unchanged. This version will be **orders of magnitude faster** for any list of reasonable size. If you must implement a sort yourself, you can use an in-place quicksort or another more efficient algorithm, but for practical, production-quality Python code, `arr.sort()` is fastest.
