1) Using the concept of string Slicing: Take string input from the user then use string slicing concept.

if __name__ == "__main__" :

    string = input('Enter a string : ')

    # reverse a string using string slicing concept
    rev_string = string[::-1]

    print("reverse string :",rev_string)

Output

Enter a string : Ankit
reverse string : tiknA

2) Using string concatenation concept: Take string input from the user, simply iterate the string from the last character till the first character and concatenated with previous resultant string.

if __name__ == "__main__" :

    string = input('Enter a string : ')

    length = len(string)
    
    rev_string = ''

    # iteration from the last character till
    # first character and cocatenating them
    for index in range(length-1,-1,-1) :
        rev_string += string[index]

    print("reverse string :",rev_string)

Output

Enter a string : Ankit
reverse string : tiknA

3) Make a user-defined function for reversing the string: In this function, we simply iterate the string from the last character till the first character and concatenated with previous resultant string. In last we return the final reverse string.

# define a function for reversing the string
def reverseString(string) :
    
    length = len(string)
    
    rev_string = ''

    # iteration from the last character till
    # first character and cocatenating them
    for index in range(length-1,-1,-1) :
        rev_string += string[index]

    return rev_string


# Main() method
if __name__ == "__main__" :

    string = input('Enter a string : ')

    print("reverse string :",reverseString(string))

Output

Enter a string : Ankit
reverse string : tiknA

4) Make a user-defined function for reversing the string: In this function, we simply iterate the string from the last character till the first character and concatenated with previous resultant string. In last we return the final reverse string.

if __name__ == "__main__" :

    string = input('Enter a string : ')

    # covert string into list of characters
    list_char = list(string)

    # reverse the list
    list_char.reverse()

    # join function return string after concatenating the
    # elements from the list in given order with empty string
    rslt = "".join(list_char)
    
    print("reverse string :",rslt)

Output

Enter a string : Ankit
reverse string : tiknA

5) Using reversed() and join() function: Take string input from user then pass that string in reversed() function . reversed() function returns reversed object which is converted into list using list() function then we are using join() function on this list which gives reversed string.

if __name__ == "__main__" :

    string = input('Enter a string : ')

    # covert string into list of characters
    list_rev = list(reversed(string))

    # join function return string after concatenating the
    # elements from the list in given order with empty string
    rslt = "".join(list_rev)
    
    print("reverse string :",rslt)

Output

Enter a string : Ankit
reverse string : tiknA
