/*
  This program assumes that a file named data.dat exists and contains
  a sequence of numbers.  It reads the numbers and then writes them
  in reverse order to a file named result.dat.  The data file can
  contain at most 1000 numbers.  If a file named result.dat already
  exists, it is overwritten with the new data.
  
  The TextReader class must be available to this program.
