344. Reverse String

Description

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.

Solution

reverse-string.py

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

        while i < j:
            s[i], s[j] = s[j], s[i]
            i += 1
            j -= 1
