More generally, you can use selection vectors:

*************************************
clear*
mat define A = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)'
mata
mA = st_matrix("A")
st_matrix("B", (mA[2:*(1::length(mA)/2):-1,1], ///
	mA[2:*(1::length(mA)/2),1]))
end
mat list B
*************************************

To every ω-consistent recursive class κ of formulae there correspond
recursive class signs r, such that neither v Gen r nor Neg(v Gen r)
belongs to Flg(κ) (where v is the free variable of r).
