Original report:
########## Example 1: insert the "'b':'b_s'" into dict D by alphabet order
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
# <-----------------------------------'b': 'b_s'
'c': 'c_s',
}
# expected output:
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
'b': 'b_s',
'c': 'c_s',
}
# output actually got:
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
'b': 'b_s', 'c': 'c_s',
}
########## Example 2: insert the "'y':'y_s'" into dict D by alphabet order
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
'c': 'c_s',
# <-----------------------------------'y': 'y_s'
}
# expected output:
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
'c': 'c_s',
'y': 'y_s',
}
# output actually got:
D = {
'a': 'a_s',
'c': 'c_s', 'y': 'y_s',
}
Notes:
This should be supported by a collection_insert
(or similar) function, taking the collection node (e.g. a Dict
), the node (or nodes) to insert, and the index to insert at. This should result in consistent formatting as described above.
