sorted vs sort python

# The sort() function will modify the list it is called on. 
# The sorted() function will create a new list 
# containing a sorted version of the list it is given.

list = [4,8,2,1]
list.sort()
#--> list = [1,2,4,8] now

list = [4,8,2,1]
new_list = list.sorted()
#--> list = [4,8,2,1], but new_list = [1,2,4,8]

which sort algorithm is used by python

# The algorithm used by Python's sort() and sorted() is known as Timsort.
# This algorithm is based on Insertion sort and Merge sort.
# A stable sorting algorithm works in O(n Log n) time.
# Used in Java’s Arrays.sort() as well.

# The array is divided into blocks called Runs.
# These Runs are sorted using Insertion sort and then merged using Merge sort.

arr = [6, 2, 8, 9, 5, 3, 0, 15]
arr.sort()		# Since sort() does inplace sorting and returns None 
print(arr)

arr = [6, 2, 8, 9, 5, 3, 0, 15]
print(sorted(arr))		# sorted() returns the sorted array
