demystifying numpyargsort for sorting searching and

**Syntax:**

Let's break down each part:

* **`a`**: The input array you want to "sort." It can be a 1D array or a multi-dimensional array.

* **`axis`**: (Optional) Specifies the axis along which to sort. The default is `-1`, which means the last axis. For a 1D array, this doesn't matter since there's only one axis. For a 2D array:
* `axis=0`: Sorts each column independently.
* `axis=1`: Sorts each row independently.

* **`kind`**: (Optional) Specifies the sorting algorithm to use. The options are:
* `'quicksort'` (default): Generally the fastest for most data.
* `'mergesort'`: Guaranteed stable (elements with equal values maintain their relative order). May be slightly slower than quicksort in some cases.
* `'heapsort'`: A good option if you need a guaranteed O(n log n) worst-case performance.
* `'stable'`: Chooses mergesort internally.

* **`order`**: (Optional) If `a` is a structured array (an array of tuples or records), this argument specifies which fields to compare first, second, etc., when sorting. We'll cover this later when we discuss structured arrays.

**Return Value:**
