reverse text in python

You can reverse a string in python using slicing. Here's an example:

main.py
my_string = "Hello, world!"
reversed_string = my_string[::-1]
print(reversed_string)
85 chars
4 lines

Output:

main.py
!dlrow ,olleH
14 chars
2 lines

In the above code, we use slicing to reverse the original string. The syntax for slicing is start:stop:step. Here, we set start and stop to empty, which means we are selecting the whole string. And we set step to -1, which means we are traversing the string in reverse.

You can also convert the string to a list, reverse the list using the reverse() function, and then join the list elements back to form a string. Here's an example:

main.py
my_string = "Hello, world!"
my_list = list(my_string)
my_list.reverse()
reversed_string = "".join(my_list)
print(reversed_string)
130 chars
6 lines

Output:

main.py
!dlrow ,olleH
14 chars
2 lines

In the above code, we first convert the string to a list using the list() function. Then we use the reverse() function to reverse the list elements. Finally, we join the elements of the list using the join() function to form the reversed string.
