Not that I could find (as methods of any built in sequence type). 2.5 just has the "reversed" function that returns and iterator and so 2.5 requires these kind of gymnastics on built in sequences: > "".join(list(reversed(list(s)))) Of course, I think str.join can operate on iterators, as Paul Rubin suggests: > print ''.join(reversed(x)) This latter approach still seems a little clunky, though.
