I have a code which i want to print this list backwards but it didn't work.
It prints [2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 10, 10]
def printBackwards (list) :
i = len(list)
while (i > 0):
list.append(list[i-1])
i = i +1
print(list)
return
myslist = [2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 10]
printBackwards(myslist)
What i want is to print it [10 , 8 , 6 , 4 , 2]
How can this be done ?
EDIT: I want use my code not [::-1]
or reverse()
or something from other post WHICH I have seen . so its not duplicate . I dont want just work from what ever code however I want to edit my code to work. Thanks.
def printBackwards(x) :
i = len(x)
new_x = []
while (i > 0):
new_x.append(x[i-1])
i -= 1
print(new_x)
myslist = [2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 10]
printBackwards(myslist)
Use i-=1
to decrement the index and perhaps you might want to create a new variable to store the result.
Alternatively, you can also append you result to the existing list and print out the second part after the loop.
def printBackwards(x) :
i = len(x)
n = i
while (i > 0):
x.append(x[i-1])
i -= 1
print(x[n:])
