Reverse your quine

+2
−0

Challenge

Write a program that prints its reversed self. For example, if your code is

foo()

Then it'll output:

)(oof

Make sure that the quine is a valid one, as defined here:

No cheating -- that means that you can't just read the source file and print it. Also, in many languages, an empty file is also a quine: that isn't considered a legit quine either.

Additionally, your quine may not consist of only one data section. This includes HTML programs without tags (thus only printing their source), and the Golfscript program 1.

Is an extra new line at the end allowed?

General Sebast1an‭ wrote over 2 years ago

Hakerh400‭ No. The whole program must be outputted, so if you have a newline to be printed, then you must put a newline at the beginning of your program (considering this is reverse quining), which you probably don't want.
