I'm new to python and i can't figure out how to write a reverse for
loop in python
e.g. the python equivalent to the c++ loop

for (i = 10; i >= 0; --i)

use range with a negative step:

    for i in range(10-1, -1, -1):
        ...

or just reverse the range:

    for i in reversed(range(10)):
        ...

(the latter is mentioned in the tutorial, and is the second hit if you 
google for "python reverse for loop")
