Ok, I took a crack at using keywords for It has, however, revealed what seems to be a method dispatch bug. Will file an issue. |
The idea here is that the ordering and algorithm for sorting are two orthogonal parameters that have sensible defaults: neither, both or either can be independently specified. The resulting API is slightly more verbose but also somewhat more self-documenting. Another sign that this might be on the right track is that this change reduces the LOC of base/sort.jl by 41 lines and reduces the method count of sort, for example, from 12 to 6.
Also added lt, by, order, rev keywords to the searchsorted* funcs.

@StefanKarpinski gets the hornéd hat of shame for checking this in without updating the documentation... |

I hate to do this. +1 |

I'm always wearing a horned hat of shame. |

This ought to give a deprecation message, I suppose: julia> sort(>, [1:5])
ERROR: no method sort(Function,Array{Int64,1}) |

Yes, thanks – I missed that one. |

Quoting the main commit:
Still needs deprecation methods before merging, but I thought I'd put it out there for feedback.
Note: I really wish that the
ltandbyordering variations could be cleanly specified this way too – that would really cut the API down to a nice lean size without sacrificing any functionality. But I can't figure out a good way to do it.
