Why str(reversed(…)) doesn't give me the reversed string?

Question

I\'m trying to get used to iterators. Why if I type

b = list(reversed([1,2,3,4,5]))

It will give me a reversed list, but

c          


        

Answer 1

another way by extend slice method. more details

>>> a = "abcde"
>>> a[::-1]
'edcba'
>>> 

---

by string to list --> list reverse --> join list

>>> a
'abcde'
>>> b = list(a)
>>> b
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']
>>> b.reverse()
>>> b
['e', 'd', 'c', 'b', 'a']
>>> "".join(b)
'edcba'
>>>
