*cmp* specifies a custom comparison function of two arguments (iterable
elements) which should return a negative, zero or positive number depending on
whether the first argument is considered smaller than, equal to, or larger than
the second argument: ``cmp=lambda x,y: cmp(x.lower(), y.lower())``
the second argument: ``cmp=lambda x,y: cmp(x.lower(), y.lower())``. The default
value is ``None``.
*key* specifies a function of one argument that is used to extract a comparison
key from each list element: ``key=str.lower``
key from each list element: ``key=str.lower``. The default value is ``None``.
*reverse* is a boolean value. If set to ``True``, then the list elements are
sorted as if each comparison were reversed.
