List reverse() Method

reverse() method is used to reverse the elements of the list, the method is called with this list (list in which we have to reverse the elements) and it reverses all elements in the list.

    list_name.reverse()

Parameter(s):

• It does not accept any parameter.

Return value:

The return type of this method is <class 'NoneType'>, it returns nothing.

Example 1:

# Python List reverse() Method with Example

# declaring the list
cars = ["BMW", "Porsche", "Audi", "Lexus", "Audi"]

# printing the list
print("cars before reverse operations...")
print("cars: ", cars)

# reversing the list elements
cars.reverse()

# printing the list 
print("cars after reverse operations...")
print("cars: ", cars)

Output

cars before reverse operations...
cars:  ['BMW', 'Porsche', 'Audi', 'Lexus', 'Audi']
cars after reverse operations...
cars:  ['Audi', 'Lexus', 'Audi', 'Porsche', 'BMW']

Example 2:

# Python List reverse() Method with Example

# declaring the list
x = [100, 200, 30, 40, 50, 60, 700]

# printing the list
print("x before reverse operations...")
print("x: ", x)

# reversing list elements
x.reverse();

# printing the list
print("x after reverse operations...")
print("x: ", x)

Output

x before reverse operations...
x:  [100, 200, 30, 40, 50, 60, 700]
x after reverse operations...
x:  [700, 60, 50, 40, 30, 200, 100]
