Thanks for the encouragement, here is what I have so far.
word=raw_input("Enter a Word or string:")
print word
print word[::-1]
raw_input("\n\nPress the enter key to exit.")
In the print word [::-1] line it gives me this message (sequence index must be an integer) What does that mean
What version of Python are you using? "Extended slices" like print word[::-1] have only been supported since Python 2.3.
