This works print([i[::-1] for i in list]) You can't reverse a "string" like that ,it is a single element in list like 1 ,how can you reverse it?

shijali khare as you can access a string like an array (ie: get the nth char by string[n-1] -- indexes start at zero as for lists), you cab also use the slice notation directly on a string: inp = input("enter a string: ") print(inp) print(inp[::-1]) (quickly edited: I was forgotting the minus sign ;P)
