create a loop which gives back the nuts reversed in python

To reverse a list of nuts in Python, we can use a for loop and the indexing feature of a Python list. The process involves swapping the first nut with the last nut, then the second nut with the second-last nut, and so on. Here's how it can be done:

main.py
nuts = ['cashew', 'almond', 'pecan', 'walnut']
n = len(nuts)

for i in range(n//2):
    temp = nuts[i]
    nuts[i] = nuts[n-i-1]
    nuts[n-i-1] = temp

print(nuts)
165 chars
10 lines

Output:

main.py
['walnut', 'pecan', 'almond', 'cashew']
40 chars
2 lines

In the above code, we first define a list of nuts. We then calculate the length of the list and store it in variable n. We use range(n//2) to loop through the first half of the list, swapping each nut with its corresponding nut from the other end. We store the nut at index i in a temporary variable temp, replace it with the corresponding nut from the end, and then replace the corresponding nut from the end with temp. Finally, we print the reversed list of nuts.
