I love all your tutorials. I see often in the comments some smart code which for a beginner like myself means nothing- maybe,will be valuable in the future, but your tutorials are in depth which drives in my understanding of the programming concepts. Please keep doing what you are doing. Bless you.

[@davidusharauli2227]

How this code reverses the input string? It works but I am not sure if I understood the mechanics of it. Can you explain a little bit more.

[@AmulsAcademy]

def reverse(string):
reversed_string = ""
for i in string:
reversed_string = i + reversed_string
print("reversed string is:",reversed_string)
string = input("enter the string:")
print("entered string is:",string)
reverse(string)
Here first ,
string = input("enter the string") will be executed,
so you need to enter the input,
if you enter "amuls" this string will be stored in variable string
Next it will execute ,
print("entered string is:",string)
so it will print entered string to the output screen.
Next it will execute function call that is,
reverse (string)
so now control goes to the reverse function definition,
so it will execute that function.
def reverse(string)
here string is the input that is "amuls",
next we will take one variable and we assign empty string to that.
reversed_string = ""
here reversed_string is a variable which will hold final output.
next for loop,
for i in string:
reversed_string = i + reversed_string
so here string is "amuls", so initially variable i value will be 'a',
so it will execute for loop body ,
reversed_string = i + reversed_string
here we are doing string concatenation, symbol + is used for concatenation of strings.
reversed_string is initially empty string and i value is 'a'
so it will concatenate 'a'and empty string,
so we will get reversed_string as 'a'
that is,
reversed_string = i + reversed_string
= 'a' + ""
= 'a'
next again control goes to for loop,
now i value becomes 'm',
it will execute for loop body,
reversed_string = i + reversed_string
= 'm' + 'a'
= "ma"
in this same way it will continue the execution:)

[@Amit-nh2pu]

great!

[@vengateshprasath2906]

Str="David"
str[::-1]

[@melissahuerta8315]

thanks for the explanation, at first I was confused too.. reading the string as it was an array like str[I] and in my mind it got the same order.. but now is clear :)

[@sultanahmadsabawoon6030]

still confused. make the code as reversed_string + i.
in this case it will give you the same string as entered initially. the trick is that the i value is cancatenated with reversed string not the other way around.

What the Meaning Of -1,-1,-1 Here Please Answer Me

[@ralphmachado8201]

@@PassionateSaksham
1: length-1 means that the for loop will start from the index number which is one less than the length of the string to be reversed
2: -1 is the number untill which the for loop will run
3: -1 is the amount which will be decremented after every iteration and this will continue until the number reaches till -1.

[@davidusharauli2227]

Thanks for reply. but why would for loop add m before a like m+a and not standard way a+m? this part is main part and your reply did not make it clear. if one puts 'amuls'[::-1] it makes sense to reverse. But why would x = i+var should loop from left to write rather than from right to left?

[@AmulsAcademy]

hey,
In the string concatenation,
'a' + 'm' is 'am'
'm' + 'a' is 'ma'
for i in string:
reversed_string = i +reversed_string
here string is amuls,
so first i value becomes 'a'
so for loop executes for i='a',
so ,
reversed_string = i +reversed_string [ here,
= 'a' + ""
= 'a' [ i = 'a'
[ reversed-string = '"" [ empty string ]
Now reversed_string is 'a'
so next i value becomes 'm'
reversed_string = i +reversed_string
= 'm' + 'a'
='ma'
so reversed_string is 'ma' now.
here we are doing,
i+reversed_string
so we get string is reversed order, that is 'sluma'
if we write,
reversed_string + i
we will get the same string, that is "amuls"
:)

[@davidusharauli2227]

Thanks. I got it now. very nice.

Hi! Can you please make a video on the question: If a list in python has mix of strings & numbers, how will you make separate lists of strings & numbers? I saw ord() for getting ASCII code in python & chr() for converting ASCII codes to characters somewhere & tried to use them to get answer of this question but it did not work!! :(

[@drsmahesan203]

Pythonic way to reverse a string is to use the slice operator
E.g.
str1 = "Amuls"
rev_str = str1[ : : -1]

Amuls Academy Thanks for your answer but can you please explain the code or atleast make one video tutorial on this.

[@haicugolu4337]

very nice

[@jumanjiwarlord]

Let’s say the word is Dog. On the first iteration, the D is stored in the empty list. Now on the second iteration, we pick up the o. And we add the o to the list... the list already contains D but the second iteration will be added BEFORE the list. Now we have oD... and so forth... goD.
The trick is in the concatenation. i + reversed_string is like o + D. It’s only confusing because we read left to right and this logic is going against our natural tendencies. We just can’t grasp that o being placed BEFORE the D in a concatenated string unless you understand concatenation (and building strings through concatenation).
I hope this helps somebody. We’re all at different levels. Some people have mentioned the [::-1] technique. Splicing a list, I believe it’s called? That’s probably the easier way.

[@jumanjiwarlord]

Another thing, it doesn’t even have to be a word. After all, a computer doesn’t know what a Dog is. All it knows is characters. So instead of Dog, let’s use mZy. First iteration is m. m gets stored in an empty list. Second iteration is Z, then we add Z to the list to get Zm and so forth yZm. The point is we’re adding the characters BEFORE the stored list... as stated by i + reversed_string. That’s how it builds in reverse over the course of its iterations.
