⚡️ Speed up function sorter by 173,949%
Here’s an optimized version that replaces the O(n²) bubble sort with Python's highly-efficient built-in `sort()`, which runs in O(n log n) time and uses less memory by sorting in-place, while preserving all the comments and output. This preserves the behavior and signature exactly while greatly improving performance.
