order is considered to be sorted just as they do for [`sort`](@ref).

true

"""
    partialsort!(v, k; by=<transform>, lt=<comparison>, rev=false)

Partially sort the vector `v` in place, according to the order specified by `by`, `lt` and
`rev` so that the value at index `k` (or range of adjacent values if `k` is a range) occurs
at the position where it would appear if the array were fully sorted via a non-stable
algorithm. If `k` is a single index, that value is returned; if `k` is a range, an array of
values at those indices is returned. Note that `partialsort!` does not fully sort the input
array.

    sort!(v; alg::Algorithm=defalg(v), lt=isless, by=identity, rev::Bool=false, order::Ordering=Forward)

Sort the vector `v` in place. `QuickSort` is used by default for numeric arrays while
`MergeSort` is used for other arrays. You can specify an algorithm to use via the `alg`
keyword (see Sorting Algorithms for available algorithms). The `by` keyword lets you provide
a function that will be applied to each element before comparison; the `lt` keyword allows
providing a custom "less than" function; use `rev=true` to reverse the sorting order. These
options are independent and can be used together in all possible combinations: if both `by`
and `lt` are specified, the `lt` function is applied to the result of the `by` function;
`rev=true` reverses whatever ordering specified via the `by` and `lt` keywords.

# Examples
```jldoctest
julia> v = [3, 1, 2]; sort!(v); v

## partialsortperm: the permutation to sort the first k elements of an array ##

"""
    partialsortperm(v, k; by=<transform>, lt=<comparison>, rev=false)

Return a partial permutation `I` of the vector `v`, so that `v[I]` returns values of a fully
sorted version of `v` at index `k`. If `k` is a range, a vector of indices is returned; if
`k` is an integer, a single index is returned. The order is specified using the same
keywords as `sort!`. The permutation is stable, meaning that indices of equal elements
appear in ascending order.

Note that this function is equivalent to, but more efficient than, calling `sortperm(...)[k]`.
