python标准库学习—bisect模块

bisect模块可以使列表保持已排好的顺序，使用二分算法。

bisect(list,item,[low,[high]])                返回要插入item点的索引，如果item在列表中了，则返回该条目的右边索引

bisect_right(list,iten,[left,[right]])        同上

bisect_left(list,iten,[left,[right]])          返回要插入item点的索引，如果item在列表中了，则返回该条目的左边索引

insort(list,item,[left,[right]])                不返回索引，直接插入进去，如果有重复的item，则插入到右边

insort_right(list,item,[left,[right]])       同上

insort_left(list,item,[left,[right]])         不返回索引，直接插入进去，如果有重复的item，则插入到左边
