Deduction guides(C++17)

 

void reverse();		(until C++11)
void reverse() noexcept;		(since C++11)

Reverses the order of the elements in the container. No references or iterators become invalidated.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

(none)

Complexity

Linear in the size of the container

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <list>
 
std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& ostr, const std::list<int>& list)
{
    for (auto &i : list) {
        ostr << " " << i;
    }
    return ostr;
}
 
int main()
{
    std::list<int> list = { 8,7,5,9,0,1,3,2,6,4 };
 
    std::cout << "before:     " << list << "\n";
    list.sort();
    std::cout << "ascending:  " << list << "\n";
    list.reverse();
    std::cout << "descending: " << list << "\n";
}

Output:

before:      8 7 5 9 0 1 3 2 6 4
ascending:   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
descending:  9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
