Hi,
In Python 2 one can do silly apple-pear comparisons such as 0> "0".*) "CPython
implementation detail: Objects of different types except numbers are ordered by their type names;
objects of the same types that don’t support proper comparison are ordered by their address.". In
Python3 this has been fixed (it raises a TypeError). Is there a way to emulate this behavior in
Python 2?

See if implementing __cmp__ gets you what you're looking for.
See http://www.rafekettler.com/magicmethods.html#comparisons for more info.
