[SciPy-user] Returning the positions of a sorted array

[Perez Kawumi]

Hullo,
Im having problems returning the positions of a sorted array. 

Say I create an array 
a = ([3,5,1])

 then if I use the sort command I get

sort(a) = [1,3,5] 

But what if i want the actual original positions of the sorted array to be returned instead. Is there a command in python that can do this?

I'm looking for an answer of the form [2,0,1] which returns the original positions in a of the sorted array instead.

Thanks
