Because 'sort' is a method that can be called on a list, and 'find' is a method that can be called on a string.

A) and B) are the way to go. But if you ask me, the real question is why we're still using Python 2 syntax in 2023. Time to upgrade, folks!

You know, if I had a nickel for every time I've seen a question like this, I'd be rich enough to buy a new computer to take the test on.

D) is definitely not valid. What's with the random comma and the empty string? Whoever wrote this question is trying to confuse us.

I'm surprised C) is not a valid option. It looks like a valid function call to me. Maybe the Python gods are playing tricks on us.

A) and B) are the valid options. sorted() is a built-in function that returns a new sorted list, while .sort() is a list method that modifies the list in-place.

I agree with Adelina, B is incorrect. A and C are the valid invocations.

But 'python'.sort() is not a valid invocation, it should be sorted('python').
