How do you reverse the words in a string using python (manually)? [duplicate]

Answer 1

You have a string:

str = "A long string to test this algorithm"

Split the string (at word boundary -- no arguments to split):

splitted = str.split()

Reverse the array obtained -- either using ranges or a function

reversed = splitted[::-1]

Concatenate all words with spaces in between -- also known as joining.

result = " ".join(reversed)

Now, you don't need so many temps, combining them into one line gives:

result = " ".join(str.split()[::-1])
