>>> l = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> print(reduce(lambda acc, x: [x] + acc, l, []))
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1]

内置功能最少，假设是面试设置

array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7, 8]
inverse = [] #create container for inverse array
length = len(array)  #to iterate later, returns 8 
counter = length - 1  #because the 8th element is on position 7 (as python starts from 0)

for i in range(length): 
   inverse.append(array[counter])
   counter -= 1
print(inverse)

可以使用__reverse__来完成，它会返回一个生成器。

>>> l = [1,2,3,4,5]
>>> for i in l.__reversed__():
...   print i
... 
5
4
3
2
1
>>>

>>> xs = [0, 10, 20, 40]
>>> xs[::-1]
[40, 20, 10, 0]

这里将解释扩展片语法。请参见文档。

下面是一种使用生成器对反向进行惰性计算的方法:

def reverse(seq):
    for x in range(len(seq), -1, -1): #Iterate through a sequence starting from -1 and increasing by -1.
        yield seq[x] #Yield a value to the generator

现在像这样迭代:

for x in reverse([1, 2, 3]):
    print(x)

如果你需要一个列表:

l = list(reverse([1, 2, 3]))

use

print(list(reversed(list_name)))
