Furthermore Ruby has a pretty nice convention (sadly not used enough I think) taken from Scheme where it's possible to postfix a method name with "!" (note: the "!" is part of the name, there's no magic) to indicate that this method modifies the object it's called on rather than simply returning stuff.
Another oddity i did not like at first but must admit is growing on me
 vector.reverse --> returns a new reversed vector
 vector.reverse! --> modifies the instance vector in-place
Of course in python you would do...
 vector.reverse --> in-place
 vector.reversed --> in-place

how to reverse a string in python? must i usa a temp? like:

>>> s = "ciccio"
>>> l = list(s)
>>> l.reverse()
>>> s = "".join(l)
>>> s
'oiccic'
>>>

???

s = s[::-1]
