Reverse String Using Recursion
Reverse String Using Recursion
EasyRecursion71% accepted
Reverse a string using recursion: the reverse of a string is the last character followed by the reverse of everything except the last character. Or equivalently: the first character goes at the end. This problem builds your intuition for recursive string manipulation.
Approach
Given a string S, print S reversed using recursion (no loops, no built-in reverse).
