This function takes either an array or a dictionary as the `self` argument, and a function as `func`. The argument `func` must take two arguments - the first is the index/key of the array/dictionary, and the second is the value. The contents of `self` are passed into `func`, one element at a time, until `func` returns `true`, at which point this function returns `true`. Otherwise this function returns `false`.

## _sort(self: array, func: fn)
This function takes an array as the `self` argument, and a comparison function as `func`. The argument `func` must take two arguments, and return a truthy or falsy value. The contents of the array in `self` are sorted based on the results of `func`, as though function were the less comparison function.

import compound;
fn less(a, b) {
return a < b;
}
var a = [4, 2, 3, 1];
print a.sort(less); //prints "[1, 2, 3, 4]"
