How to reverse a String without using C functions ?..

Answer / abhishek joshi ( h7 )

all these methods are too long.....

HAVE A LOOK ON SIMPLEST AND THE SHORTEST OF ALL
IN JUST ONE LINE YOU CAN REVERSE ANY STRING
and yes..... without using string.h

CODE IS :

#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int l,i,j; /*declaring integer variables*/
char str[10],temp[10]; /* declaring string variables*/

/* Now taking input from the user*/

printf("\n enter any string to reverse =>");
scanf("%s",&str); /* passing into the variable*/

/*finding the lenth of the entered string */
for (l=0;str[l];++l); /*length found;amazing code!isnt it?*/
{printf("\nThis is the length of the string =>%d\n",l);}

/*making loop for reversing the given string*/

j=l;
for (i=0;j>=0;i++,j--)
{
temp[i]=str[j]; /* Note that the string is reversed */
/* and saved into new variable i.e temp*/
}

/*Now printing the reversed string*/
printf("\n this is the reversed string =>");

for (i=0;i<=l;i++)
{printf("%c",temp[i]);

/* this loop is calling the characters from the temp variable*/
}
}
/*End of program :-D*/

So this was my coding .....
am abhishek joshi.....
computer and network engineer....
am dot net programmer but also have indepth knowledge of C
and C++
and if you feel this code helpful then at least mention one
thanks vote on my mail id : h7_2007@yahoo.co.in

Answer / shruti

the above is slightly wrong
this is the corrected one..

char * rev_string (char * str)
{
char temp;
int i , j;
for (i = 0 ; str[i]!= '\0' ; i++);

for(j = 0 ; j < i ; j++ , i--)
{
temp = str[j];
str[j] = str[i];
str[i] = temp;
}

return str;
}

Answer / manoj

#include <stdio.h>

void reverse(char s[])
{
int low; /* index in the lower half of the array s */
int high; /* index in the upper half of the array s */
char c; /* for holding intermediate strings */
int len; /* the length of the string s */

/* Initialize len to the length of the string */
for (len=0;s[len]!='\0';len++) ;

/* Let low increase and high decrease until they meet */
low = 0;
high = len-1;
while (low<high) {
/* Switch the values of s[low] and s[high] */
c = s[low];
s[low] = s[high];
s[high] = c;
low++;
high--;
}
}

main()
{
int c;
char line[80]; /* array to hold a line of input */
int i; /* to use as an index in the array */

c = getchar();
i = 0;

/* Read input until EOF (CTRL-z) */
while (c != EOF) {
if (c != '\n') {
/* Put anything else but newline in the array */
line[i] = c;
i++;
}

if (c == '\n') {
/* For a newline, reverse and print the line and start new line */
line[i] = '\0';
reverse(line);
printf("%s",line);
putchar(c);
