Example 1: reverse list python
>>> the_list = [1,2,3]
>>> reversed_list = the_list.reverse()
>>> list(reversed_list)
[3,2,1]
OR
>>> the_list = [1,2,3]
>>> the_list[::-1]
[3,2,1]
Example 2: python reverse list
my_list = [1, 2, 3]
my_list.reverse() # my_list is modified
print(my_list) # '[3, 2, 1]'
my_revert = my_list[::-1] # my_list stays [3, 2, 1]
print(my_revert) # '[1, 2, 3]'
# Item by item reverse with range(<start>, <end>, <step>)
for i in range(len(my_list), 0, -1):
print(my_list[i-1]) # '1' '2' '3'
for i in reversed(range(len(my_list))):
print(my_list[i]) # '1' '2' '3'
Example 3: how to flip a list backwards in python
myList = [0,1,2,3,4,5]
myList.reverse()
print(myList)
#OR
print(myList[::-1])
Example 4: python sort list in reverse
#1 Changes list
list.sort(reverse=True)
#2 Returns sorted list
sorted(list, reverse=True)
Example 5: how to reverse a list in python
mylist
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
mylist[::-1]
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
Example 6: reverse list
public static <T> List<T> reverse(List<T> list)
