Hi

Im confused by one thing, and if someone can explain it I would be a happy 

> rev(strsplit("hej",NULL))
[[1]]
[1] "h" "e" "j"

> lapply(strsplit("hej",NULL),rev)
[[1]]
[1] "j" "e" "h"

Why dossent the first one work? What is it in R that "fails" so to say that
you need to use lapply for it to get the correct output.
