[REBOL] Re: Reverse select?
From: ale870::gmail::com at: 8-Aug-2007 21:35
Hello,
regarding the solution proposed by Gregg, I have a question:
>> select reverse states "Wyoming"
I think in such case the solution could be very slow, since Rebol reverses
the data every time.
Is it right?
If so, is there any way to avoid the reverse process, but communicating to
Rebol to search in back?
Thank you!
