Talk:Reverse the order of lines in a text file while preserving the contents of each line: Difference between revisions

Line 46:
 
I hope I got the re-wording of the (draft) task's requirements such that there is little room for misinterpretation.   My first draft change could've been interpreted as the original file was to be written with the reversed order of lines/records.   Also, I don't know if I got the "where to read" the lines/records,   so I tried to generalize   (memory = storage?).   We old-timers liked to use "core",   but that referred to different century.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 20:03, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
 
==Even worse==
I had low expectations but even they were too high apparently. The task has been renamed form "Reverse file lines‎‎" to "Display the order of the lines of a file in reverse order". Assuming the task title has ''<big>anything</big>'' to do with the actual task to be performed; (A rash assumption for any of Calmosofts' tasks, I know.) It can adequately by executed as:
 
<lang perl6>say 'reversed'</lang>
 
as the order of the lines in a file in reverse order is pretty much by definition, "reversed". --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 11:45, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
