Reverse string Python












3















I would like to get input from a user and then to print the string reversed like this:

input:




hello






output:




o
ol
oll
olle
olleh




This is my code:



s = input()
for i in range(len(s) - 2, -1, -1):
print(s[:i:-1])


And output i receive is:




o
ol
oll
olle




I am constantly missing the last character. I tried many variations of the slicing. What am I missing?

          To get the full string reversed you must use s[::-1] omitting the first value.
          Since that doesn't fit into your iteration you'll have to use something like:



          s = input()

          for i in range(len(s) - 2, -1, -1):
          print(s[:i:-1])

          print(s[::-1])

          You must first obtain the substring and then reverse it:



          s = "hello"
          for i in range(len(s)-1, -1, -1):
          print(s[i:][::-1])


          Or:



          s = "hello"
          for i, _ in enumerate(s):
          print(s[i:][::-1])


          Or reverse the word and get the substring:



          s = "hello"
          for i, _ in enumerate(s):
          print(s[::-1][:i+1])

            This is nice, but I don't think the double string slicing is strictly necessary.

            Double the operations :). I'm not saying it's wrong, it's just.. not necessary.

          Easiest perhaps is to iterate from -1 backwards:



          s = 'hello'
          for i in range(1, len(s)+1):
          print(s[-1: -i-1: -1])

          hello
          o
          ol
          oll
          olle
          olleh


          The way this works, you are slicing sequentially:





          • s[-1: -2: -1],


          • s[-1: -3: -1],...

          • s[-1: -len(s)-1: -1]

            You were almost there. One thing was already addressed - you iterate to little (the -2). The second thing is you need to use None to include the 0th element in the print:



            >>> for i in range(len(s)-1, -1, -1):
            ... print(s[:i-1 if i else None :-1])

              I would do it this way:



              a = "Hello"
              for i in range(len(a)):
              print(a[-i-1])


              This way you are not dealing with string slices, only indexing the string and there isn't a bunch of extra numbers to figure out what they are doing.

              • Unfortunately, this won't work as you aren't defining any slices.

              • I see - I missed the requirement that the whole word is backwards. This method will print out each letter individually in the reverse order.

              You could also simply reverse the complete thing and print it sliced from the start to save you some headache:



              b = "hello"   # your input
              h = b[::-1] # inverse all - so this is now olleh

              # list slicing is from:exclusive to - so simply add 1 to fit with the ranges values 0-4
              for k in ( h[0:i+1] for i in range(0,len(h)) ):
              print(k)


              Output:



              o
              ol
              oll
              olle
              olleh

                The very basic method to reverse a string s is s[::-1] (and save it
                in another variable, say s2).



                Then, to print consecutive rows with increasing part of this string (s2),
                you need a loop over range(1, len(s2)+1), stating the upper limit of s2
                (excluding).



                So the script can look like below:



                s = 'hello'
                s2 = s[::-1]
                for i in range(1, len(s2)+1):
                print(s2[:i])

                  • @jpp Why do you think that double slicing is not right? What problems could it generate? :-)

                    Double the operations :). I'm not saying it's wrong, it's just.. not necessary.

                  You must first obtain the substring and then reverse it:



                  s = "hello"
                  for i in range(len(s)-1, -1, -1):
                  print(s[i:][::-1])


                  Or:



                  s = "hello"
                  for i, _ in enumerate(s):
                  print(s[i:][::-1])


                  Or reverse the word and get the substring:



                  s = "hello"
                  for i, _ in enumerate(s):
                  print(s[::-1][:i+1])

                  Easiest perhaps is to iterate from -1 backwards:



                  s = 'hello'
                  for i in range(1, len(s)+1):
                  print(s[-1: -i-1: -1])

                  hello
                  o
                  ol
                  oll
                  olle
                  olleh


                  The way this works, you are slicing sequentially:





                  • s[-1: -2: -1],


                  • s[-1: -3: -1],...

                          You were almost there. One thing was already addressed - you iterate to little (the -2). The second thing is you need to use None to include the 0th element in the print:

                                  I would do it this way:



                                  a = "Hello"
                                  for i in range(len(a)):
                                  print(a[-i-1])


                                  This way you are not dealing with string slices, only indexing the string and there isn't a bunch of extra numbers to figure out what they are doing.

                                  • I see - I missed the requirement that the whole word is backwards. This method will print out each letter individually in the reverse order.

                                  I would do it this way:



                                  a = "Hello"
                                  for i in range(len(a)):
                                  print(a[-i-1])

                                  You could also simply reverse the complete thing and print it sliced from the start to save you some headache:



                                  b = "hello"   # your input
                                  h = b[::-1] # inverse all - so this is now olleh

                                  # list slicing is from:exclusive to - so simply add 1 to fit with the ranges values 0-4
                                  for k in ( h[0:i+1] for i in range(0,len(h)) ):
                                  print(k)

                                          The very basic method to reverse a string s is s[::-1] (and save it

                                          (excluding).
