[portland] Need Help With a For Loop

[kirby urner]

Hi Rich,

I didn't go as far as plot sequence number, but that could be added
with one more line of code inserted after the existing lines:

ranked = sorted(ranked, key=little lambda with the right key number).

The plots would then just naturally be in that sequence, no other
code needed (although when plots get superimposed, I'm not
sure what "sequence" even means -- but that's your department,
no need to explain).
