map

Now use map() to create a variable named forwards. forwards should use reverse() to reverse the order of every item in backwards.

my solution was; forwards = list(map(reverse, backwards))

The map challenge is looking for a variable forwards set to the result of a map() function. The map function takes two arguments:

  • a callable function without parens. Remember functions are first class objects and can be passes as argument.
  • an iterable object, such as backwards
