Name

Array.reverse() — reverse the elements of an array

Synopsis

array.reverse()

Description

The reverse() method of an Array object reverses the order of the elements of an array. It does this in place: it rearranges the elements of the specified array without creating a new array. If there are multiple references to array, the new order of the array elements is visible through all references.

Example

a = new Array(1, 2, 3);    // a[0] == 1, a[2] == 3;
a.reverse();               // Now a[0] == 3, a[2] == 1;
