To generate a list of words from a string, split the string up on the 
spaces between words. See the split method of strings.

Having a list of words, get a copy of the list in reverse order. See the 
reversed function (and maybe the list function).

Note - reversed returns an iterable, list will convert the iterable to a 
list.

To join the elements of a list into a string, see the join method of 
strings.
