list_sort (list l[, boolean numeric]) ⇒ list
Sorts a list, l by order. If the optional parameter, numeric, is set to true, the system treats the list as a list of numbers and sorts them on this assumption. Strings are ordered by their ASCII prime number, that is, each character is transformed to a number, and given a prime number power that is equivalent to it's position in the string. It is then multiplied by the next giving a unique number. Then it is transformed to a string again. Note: This function copies the list, l.
