Better Python and not bad English, either.

... and taking Marko's good advice, what I think you really wanted:


>>> def poplist(L):
        done = False
        while not done:
                yield L[::-1][:1:]
                L = L[::-1][1::][::-1]
                if len(L)==0: done=True

                
>>> L=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

>>> m=[]

>>> pop = poplist(L)

>>> for n in poplist(L):
        m.append(n[0])

>>> m
[7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
>>>
