RE: [Tutor] Python backwards program

[Alberto Troiano]

You can do this:

>>> word=raw_input("Type the word: ")
Type the word: Kokiri Forest
>>> print word
Kokiri Forest
>>> print word[::-1]
tseroF irikoK

But I saw that this gave you a hard time so this is an alternate longer way:

>>> backword=""
>>> counter=len(word)

>>> while counter!=0:
             backword+=word[counter-1]
             counter-=1

>>> print backword
tseroF irikoK

So choose the one you want and feel free to ask in case of any doubt
