reverse SYNOPSIS Reverse the elements of a 1-d array USAGE Array_Type reverse (Array_Type A) DESCRIPTION The `reverse' function reverses the elements of a 1-d array and returns the result. SEE ALSO shift -------------------------------------------------------------- shift SYNOPSIS Shift the elements of a 1-d array USAGE Array_Type shift (Array_Type A, Int_Type n) DESCRIPTION The `shift' function shifts the elements of an array by a specified amount and returns the result. If `n' is positive, the ith element of the array will be shifted to the position `i-n' of the array. Elements for which `i-n' is less than 0 will be moved to the end of the array. EXAMPLE A = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]; B = shift (A, 3); % ==> B = [4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3]; C = shift (A, -1); % ==> C = [9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]; NOTES It many ways `rotate' would be a better name for this function.
