Reverses the order of the elements in the range [first, last).

Parameters

first, last

-

the range of elements to reverse

Return value

(none)

Example

Run this code

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
 
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    std::vector<int> v({1,2,3});
    std::reverse(std::begin(v), std::end(v));
    std::cout << v[0] << v[1] << v[2] << '\n';
 
    int a[] = {4, 5, 6, 7};
    std::reverse(&a[0], &a[4]);
    std::cout << a[0] << a[1] << a[2] << a[3] << '\n';
}

Output:

321
7654

Complexity

linear in the distance between first and last
