• Dell Latitude 5501 sounds even worse than my MSI MS-16P7 due to ratting its plastic case. Interviews sound like a poor phone connection. Iron Maiden - Can I Play With Madness on the other hand is tolerable and even has some bass, almost enough for Robbie Williams - Angels, which sounds like a not-quite-tuned FM radio for the vocals (too little power), particularly noticable on U2 - Discotheque. Without "audio enhancements" disabled, its audio jack adds a rumble to videos like this. Worst audio hardware I've ever used, especially playing this. Then again, using my Logi

1: Test early and often so you know where you were wrong.
2: Space out sessions so you know it's long term knowledge.
3: Do other stuff in between so it doesn't get boring.

"""Ported from https://www.java67.com/2018/03/how-to-implement-radix-sort-in-java.html
Sort an integer list in-place using least significant digit radix sort in Python.
Usage:
>>> x = [180, 50, 10, 30, 10, 29, 60, 0, 17, 24, 12]; radix_sort(x); x
[0, 10, 10, 12, 17, 24, 29, 30, 50, 60, 180]

Time Complexity of Solution:
	Best Case O(k*n); Average Case O(k*n); Worst Case O(k*n),
	where k is the length of the longest number and n is the
	size of the input array.
