How to write a c program to reverse the string with in the same string? I.e No other string variables should be used. Not even built functions also.

Syed Aftab

Jul 4th, 2006

program to reverse a string using recursive function:
---------------------------------------------------
void reverse (int index, char *str ) ;
int main (void)
{
   char name[100];
   printf ("Enter a mutli-word string") ;
   gets(name) ;
   reverse (strlen(name) , name ) ;
}
void reverse (int index, char *str )
{
if (--index < 0 )
{
     return ;
}
else
{
        putchar ( *(str + index) ) ;
       reverse (index, str) ;
}
}
Logic:
-----
For eg : let's say the user has entered 50 characters.
then index is initially 50.
when reverse() function is called for the first time then
index will be 50 .we first decrement the index by 1 so that
it will become 49 and i am printing the 49th character i.e last
character in the string then reverse() function is called again
with index as 49 and str pointing to 49th character and again
the index will be decremented by 1 so that it will become 48 this
will continue until zeroth index is reached.
i hope this will solve the problem that you have reported , for any
queries you can mail me.
Regards,
Syed

I have written this code:

#include <stdio.h>
void rev_str(char* s)
{

if(*s != '')
rev_str(s+1);

printf("%c",*s);
}

int main()
{
rev_str("born2c0de");
return 0;
}

Here i am able to reverse the string and print it out...but i want rev_str function to return the reversed string or ideally reverse the passed string itself.

Can you help me out?

this is the program to revers the string without using string functions.
main()
{
int i,k,t,j;
char s1[20],s2[20];
printf("enter the stringn");
gets(s);
for(i=0;s[i]!='';i++)
{
j++;
}
t=0;
for(k=j;k>=0;k--)
{
s2[t]=s1[k];
t++;
};
s2[t]='';
printf("%s",s2);
}

1. Write a function to reverse string.
int main()
{
char a[10] = "mysore" ;
char b[10];
strrev(a , b);
printf("%s",b); //should print "erosym"
}

2. Write a function to capitalize first letter of every word
in string.
int main()
{
char a[50] = "mysore karnataka india" ;
char b[50];
Capitalize(a , b);
printf("%s",b); //should print "Mysore Karnataka India"
}

3. Write a function to reverse the words in string.
int main()
{
char a[50] = "mysore karnataka india" ;
char b[50];
reversewords(a , b);
printf("%s",b); //should print "india karnataka mysore"
}

Hi Rohan,
Can you explain the logic that you write in the above, Reverse of
the string without using temp variable?

str[i]+=str[len];
str[len]=str[i]-str[len];
str[i]=str[i]-str[len]--;

How we can add and subtract a character from other character?

Please
clear me the logic that you explained above?
