Question

I have a tuple and would like to reverse it in Python.

The tuple looks like this : (2, (4, (1, (10, None)))).

I tried reversing in Python by:

a = (2, (4, (1, (10, None))))
b = reversed(a)

It returns me this:

<reversed object at 0x02C73270>

How do I get the reverse of a? Or must I write a function to do this?

The result should look like this:

((((None, 10), 1), 4), 2)

Answer 1

def my_reverser(x):
  try:
    x_ = x[::-1]
  except TypeError:
    return x
  else:
    return x if len(x) == 1 else tuple(my_reverser(e) for e in x_)
