 How do I iterate over a sequence in reverse order?
 --------------------------------------------------
 
-Use the :func:`reversed` built-in function, which is new in Python 2.4::
+Use the :func:`reversed` built-in function::
 
    for x in reversed(sequence):

-   for x in sequence[::-1]:
-       ...  # do something with x ...
