How do I reverse a string in Python?

Reversing a string in Python is a common task, especially when you're working on coding challenges or string manipulation problems. Fortunately, Python makes it super easy with its built-in features.

Here are a few popular ways to reverse a string in Python:

Using Slicing:

 This is the most Pythonic and concise way.

my_string = "Hello"

reversed_string = my_string[::-1]

print(reversed_string)  # Output: "olleH"

Using reversed() with join():

 This method is more readable for beginners who may not be comfortable with slicing.

my_string = "Python"

reversed_string = ''.join(reversed(my_string))

print(reversed_string)  # Output: "nohtyP"

Using a loop:

 Good for understanding the logic behind string reversal.

my_string = "World"

reversed_string = ''

for char in my_string:

    reversed_string = char + reversed_string

print(reversed_string)  # Output: "dlroW"

Things to keep in mind:

• Strings in Python are immutable, so each method returns a new string.
  
• The slicing method ([::-1]) is the fastest and most commonly used in real-world Python code.
