~~Let's hope the list isn't too long. `for (0..x)` is evaluated lazily, but I doubt that `for (reverse x..0)` is as well.~~ ~~On second thought, that would rarely matter.~~	[reply] [d/l] [select]

~~Does this create a list all at once so that it can reverse it as opposed ikegami's solution which creates only one value at a time? I ask because I honestly don't know.~~ Update: Yarr...that's what I get for not refreshing. thor `Feel the white light, the light within Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come`	[reply]
