They also seemed to think there should be a different behavior to handle even length vs odd length 🤔

which makes me think they had the wrong scenario, but idk

They asked me to write a function that would reverse a string and I just did

return s[::-1]

and they seemed dubious

but it works

I later proceeded to say, the other way to do it is

ns=""
for n in range(len(s),0,-1):
ns=ns+s[n-1]
return ns

that's when they called it showing off :D

it's pretty simple stuff tho
