Isn't a period missed?

You mean at the very end. Not sure about this because that last part is not a complete sentence, but then I'm not a native speaker 🤷♂️

FWIW, I would probably use a full stop at the end (and again for nsmallest). The last part still functions as a sentence, it comes after other sentences (now) using full stops, and another full stop would identify the end of the paragraph.
If the code was written on a separate line, I probably wouldn’t use a full stop.

Sounds convincing, plus the docs have many other examples of incomplete sentences like this that all have a period.
Jut realized that the documentation for sorted() has the identical problem. Fixed it there, too. |

like you did in the Doc/library/functions.rst
part of this change.
