-@defun nreverse list
-@cindex reversing a list
- This function reverses the order of the elements of @var{list}.
-Unlike @code{reverse}, @code{nreverse} alters its argument by reversing
-the @sc{cdr}s in the cons cells forming the list. The cons cell that
-used to be the last one in @var{list} becomes the first cons cell of the
-value.
-
- For example:
-
-@example
-@group
-(setq x '(a b c))
- @result{} (a b c)
-@end group
-@group
-x
- @result{} (a b c)
-(nreverse x)
- @result{} (c b a)
-@end group
-@group
-;; @r{The cons cell that was first is now last.}
-x
- @result{} (a)
-@end group
-@end example
-
- To avoid confusion, we usually store the result of @code{nreverse}
-back in the same variable which held the original list:
-
-@example
-(setq x (nreverse x))
-@end example
-
- Here is the @code{nreverse} of our favorite example, @code{(a b c)},
-presented graphically:

+@defun nreverse seq
+@cindex reversing a list
+@cindex reversing a vector
+ This function reverses the order of the elements of @var{seq}.
+If @var{seq} is a list, @code{nreverse} alters its by reversing the @sc{cdr}s
+in the cons cells. The cons cell that used to be the last one in @var{seq}
+becomes the first cons cell of the value. If @var{seq} is a vector or
+bool vector, its items are placed in the same vector in a reversed order.
+
+ For example:
+
+@example
+@group
+(setq x '(a b c))
+ @result{} (a b c)
+@end group
+@group
+x
+ @result{} (a b c)
+(nreverse x)
+ @result{} (c b a)
+@end group
+@group
+;; @r{The cons cell that was first is now last.}
+x
+ @result{} (a)
+@end group
+@end example
+
+ To avoid confusion, we usually store the result of @code{nreverse}
+back in the same variable which held the original list:
+
+@example
+(setq x (nreverse x))
+@end example
+
+ Here is the @code{nreverse} of our favorite example, @code{(a b c)},
+presented graphically:
+
+@smallexample
+@group
+@r{Original list head:} @r{Reversed list:}
+ ------------- ------------- ------------
+| car | cdr | | car | cdr | | car | cdr |
+| a | nil |<-- | b | o |<-- | c | o |
+| | | | | | | | | | | | |
+ ------------- | --------- | - | -------- | -
+ | | | |
+ ------------- ------------
+@end group
+@end smallexample
+
+ For the vector, it is even simpler because you don't need setq:
+
+@example
+(setq x [1 2 3 4])
+ @result{} [1 2 3 4]
+(nreverse x)
+ @result{} [4 3 2 1]
+x
+ @result{} [4 3 2 1]
+@end example
+
+Note that unlike @code{reverse}, this function doesn't work with strings.
+Although you can alter string data by using @code{aset}, it is strongly
+encouraged to treat strings as immutable.
