Data.List.Key

Variant of Data.List functions like group, sort where the comparison is performed on a key computed from the list elements. In principle these functions could be replaced by e.g. sortBy (compare on f), but f will be re-computed for every comparison. If the evaluation of f is expensive, our functions are better, since they buffer the results of f.

Divides a list into sublists such that the members in a sublist share the same key. It uses semantics of groupBy, not that of groupBy.
