how about this slight modification:

seq(x,1,10)->L1
randInt(1,10,10)->L2
SortX L2,L1

this is a little bit smaller in size, and probably in speed as well.  i'm not
really claiming credit for this, because i never would've thought of this
method without this guy's original idea.  i think this is a tiny bit better,
though.
