We seem to be heading towards over-specific task names - the name needn't be the task description :).
<br>How about "Show the lines of a file in reverse order".
<br>I like Nigel's observation that the task is to implement the Linux "tac" command, so maybe ''Implement the Linux "tac" command'' would be good (the task description could then say that only reading from standard input need be supported, text files only, native OS definition of a line, etc. etc. Perhaps multiple input files could then be a stretch goal ? --[[User:Tigerofdarkness|Tigerofdarkness]] ([[User talk:Tigerofdarkness|talk]]) 17:17, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
