Python: Reversing print order from a while loop

Question

I am writing some code takes values, the values number and N as input and prints, the first N lines of a multiplication table as below:

3 * 4 = 12
2 * 4 = 8
1 * 4 = 4    

What I'd like to do is reverse said output to look like this:

1 * 4 = 4
2 * 4 = 8
3 * 4 = 12

The code is here below. I've thought about using slicing such as [:-1] but I'm not sure how to implement it. Assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

number = input("Enter the number for 'number ': ")
N = input("Enter the number for 'N': ")

if number .isdigit() and N.isdigit():
    number = int(number )
    N = int(N)
    while int(N) > 0:
        print('{} * {} = {}'.format(N,number ,N*number))
        N = N - 1
else: 
    print ('Invalid input')

Answer 1

I would instead recommend using a for loop with the range method as such:

for i in range(1, N+1):
    print('{} * {} = {}'.format(i,number ,i*number)

Answer 2

You could change your while loop like so:

int i = 0
while i < N:
    print('{} * {} = {}'.format(i,number ,i*number))
    i = i + 1

Answer 3

Reversing a list is [::-1] (you missed ':') and you are parsing twice the same number N, but in this case you can do

counter = 0
while counter != N:
    print('{} * {} = {}'.format(N,number ,N*number))
    counter = counter + 1

Answer 4

I think, you can let the program count upwards.

N = int(N)
i = 1
while int(N) >= i:
    print('{} * {} = {}'.format(N,number ,N*number)) # TODO: adjust formula
    i = i + 1

Answer 5

If you absolutely have to do it using while loops, perhaps something like the following will work.

m = 1
while m <= N:
    #Do stuff with m
    m += 1

Although I much suggest using a for loop instead.
