Or, if you're *really* just trying to reverse the string, then the following might read more easily (although it's probably longer): fruit="banana" fruit = list(fruit) fruit.reverse() fruit = ''.join(fruit) print fruit It turns the string into a list, reverses it, joins it back together (back into a string), then prints it.
