[Solved] Write a function that reverses a string. The input string is given as an array of characters s.

Question

Write a function that reverses a string. The input string is given as an array of characters s.

You must do this by modifying the input array in-place with O(1) extra memory.

Example 1:

Input: s = ["h","e","l","l","o"]
Output: ["o","l","l","e","h"]

Example 2:

Input: s = ["H","a","n","n","a","h"]
Output: ["h","a","n","n","a","H"]

Constraints:

• 1 <= s.length <= 105
• s[i] is a printable ascii character.

Python Solution

class Solution:
    def reverseString(self, s: List[str]) -> None:
        """
        Do not return anything, modify s in-place instead.
        """
        l = 0
        r = len(s)-1

        while (l<r):
            s[l],s[r]=s[r],s[l]
            l+=1
            r-=1
