Hi,

There is no string reverse method in Python, but there is an easy way to 
do it using negative stepping in the extended slice syntax, ie. 
some_string[::-1].  Since this is somewhat non-intuitive, I think adding 
a note to the String Methods section under Built-in Types will spare a 
lot of people the time of implementing such a method.
