# A class which presents the reverse of a sequence without duplicating it.
# From: "Steven D. Majewski" <sdm7g@elvis.med.virginia.edu>
# It works on mutable or inmutable sequences.
#
# >>> for c in Rev( 'Hello World!' ) : sys.stdout.write( c )
# ... else: sys.stdout.write( '\n' )
# ...
# !dlroW olleH
#
# The .forw is so you can use anonymous sequences in init, and still
# keep a reference the forward sequence. )
# If you give it a non-anonymous mutable sequence, the reverse sequence
# will track the updated values. ( but not reassignment! - another
# good reason to use anonymous values in creating the sequence to avoid
# confusion. Maybe it should be change to copy input sequence to break
# the connection completely ? )
#
# >>> nnn = range( 0, 3 )
# >>> rnn = Rev( nnn )
# >>> for n in rnn: print n
# ...
# 2
# 1
# 0
# >>> for n in range( 4, 6 ): nnn.append( n ) # update nnn
# ...
# >>> for n in rnn: print n # prints reversed updated values
# ...
# 5
# 4
# 2
# 1
# 0
# >>> nnn = nnn[1:-1]
# >>> nnn
# [1, 2, 4]
# >>> for n in rnn: print n # prints reversed values of old nnn
# ...
# 5
# 4
# 2
# 1
# 0
# >>>
#
# WH = Rev( 'Hello World!' )
# print WH.forw, WH.back
# nnn = Rev( range( 1, 10 ) )
# print nnn.forw
# print nnn
#
# produces output:
#
# Hello World! !dlroW olleH
# [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
# [9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
#
# >>>rrr = Rev( nnn )
# >>>rrr
# <1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9>
