Using Ruby to Reverse String

October 13, 2022 Leave a Comment

We can use Ruby to reverse a string by making use of the String reverse method.

"This is a string".reverse

And here is the full code to complete the example.

some_string = "This is a string"
some_string = some_string.reverse

print some_string

#Output
gnirts a si sihT

When using string objects in Ruby, we can easily perform string manipulation to change the values or order of the characters in our string.

One such manipulation is to reverse the characters in a string.

To reverse a string, we simply need to use the reverse method.

Below is our code again with a couple more examples.

some_string = "string"
some_string1 = "This is a string";
some_string2 = "1234";
some_string = some_string.reverse
some_string1 = some_string1.reverse
some_string2 = some_string2.reverse

puts some_string
puts some_string1
puts some_string2

#Output
gnirts
gnirts a si sihT
