$RE[VERSE] ( expr )
See Clause 7 for the definition of expr.
This form returns a string whose characters are reversed in order compared to expr.
$REverse( EXPR ) is computationally equivalent to $$REV( EXPR ) which is defined by the following code:
REV(E) Q $Select(E="":"",1:$$REV($Extract(E,2,$Length(E)))_$Extract(E,1))
Editor’s note: Since the above recursive algorithm cannot be executed on a system that conforms exactly to the portability requirements (120 Do levels, strings longer than 120 characters), suggest to change this to: REV(E) New i,r Set r="" For i=1:1:$Length(r) Set r=$Extract(e,i)_r Quit r |
