Re: (Golf) Reversal

12 so far:

sub R { ''.reverse@_ }

Hmmm... here's an 11 character one that works on your examples, only because they are numbers:

sub R { 0+reverse@_ }

   MeowChow                                   
               s aamecha.s a..a\u$&owag.print

Ok. Now come up with an 11-character one that works for non-numbers. ;)

Hint? I'm being a bit of a wise-ass, aren't I? ;)

Got it! (no peeking :)

sub R { ~~reverse@_ }

   MeowChow                                   
               s aamecha.s a..a\u$&owag.print

Ok, question: What the...??? (I don't doubt that this works, but I've never seen that construct before...)
