How to write negative loop in ruby like for(i=index; i >= 0; i --)

Question

How can I write a loop in Ruby that counts down, similar to the following C-style for loop?

for (i = 25; i >= 0; i--) { 
    print i;
}

Just in case you are working with a range already:

rng = 0..6
rng.reverse_each { |i| p i }

EDIT - more succinctly:

puts(rng.to_a.reverse)
