Quick Python tip how to efficiently find the n largest or smallest numbers of a List.

A note from the official docs: "The latter two functions perform best for smaller values of n. For larger values, it is more efficient to use the sorted() function. Also, when n==1, it is more efficient to use the built-in min() and max() functions. If repeated usage of these functions is required, consider turning the iterable into an actual heap."
