in reply to Five Ways to Reverse a String of Words (C#, Perl 5, Perl 6, Ruby, Haskell)

Here goes in Smalltalk:

#('one' 'two' 'three' 'four') reversed

Do a print-It in the workspace and it gives:

#('four' 'three' 'two' 'one')

You put your things in an OrderedCollection and this collection has a reversed message that can be sent to it. Voilą !

    That utterly fails the requirement, which is to take a string like "one two three four" and return a string like "four three two one".
