"""Provide toplogical sorting (i.e. dependency sorting) functions.

The topsort function is based on code posted on Usenet by Tim Peters.

Modifications:
- added doctests
- changed some bits to use current Python idioms
  (listcomp instead of filter, +=/-=, inherit from Exception)
- added a topsort_levels version that ports items in each dependency level
  into a sub-list
- added find_cycles to aid in cycle debugging

Run this module directly to run the doctests (unittests).
Make sure they all pass before checking in any modifications.

Requires Python >= 2.2
(For Python 2.2 also requires separate sets.py module)

This requires the rad_util.py module.
