+ Equivalent to :meth:`ndarray.partition` (*self*, *ktharray*, *axis*,
+ *kind*). Partitions the array so that the values of the element indexed by
+ *ktharray* are in the positions they would be if the array is fully sorted
+ and places all elements smaller than the kth before and all elements equal
+ or greater after the kth element. The ordering of all elements within the
+ partitions is undefined.
+ If *self*->descr is a data-type with fields defined, then
+ self->descr->names is used to determine the sort order. A comparison where
+ the first field is equal will use the second field and so on. To alter the
+ sort order of a record array, create a new data-type with a different
+ order of names and construct a view of the array with that new data-type.
