Reversed

Explore how to use the reversed function in Python to obtain iterators that access sequence elements in reverse order. Understand which iterable types are compatible with reversed and how to apply it to ranges effectively. Learn the difference between the reversed function and the list reverse method, focusing on their use cases and outcomes.

We'll cover the following...

reversed function

reversed is a useful function. It returns an iterator that reverses the order of the elements in the original sequence. For example:

Python 3.8
a = [2, 4, 6, 8] 
r = reversed(a) 
print(list(r))

Here, r is an iterator that accesses the elements of a in reverse order. When we create ...
