Array.Reverse(arrayName)

This method reverses the order of the indices.

string[] pets = new string[]
{
   "Alyce",
   "Thisbe",
   "Francis",
   "Scratch",
   "Beatrice",
   "Shadow",
   "Beatrice"
};

Console.WriteLine(pets.GetValue(1));

Array.Reverse(pets);

Console.WriteLine(pets.GetValue(1));

Output

Thisbe
Shadow

   "Beatrice"
};


Array.Reverse(pets, 0, 3);
