我刚刚在c# 2.0中写了一个字符串反向函数(即LINQ不可用),然后想到了这个:

public string Reverse(string text)
{
    char[] cArray = text.ToCharArray();
    string reverse = String.Empty;
    for (int i = cArray.Length - 1; i > -1; i--)
    {
        reverse += cArray[i];
    }
    return reverse;
}

就我个人而言,我并不喜欢这个功能,我相信有更好的方法来实现它。是吗?


当前回答

必须提交一个递归的例子:

private static string Reverse(string str)
{
    if (str.IsNullOrEmpty(str) || str.Length == 1)
        return str;
    else
        return str[str.Length - 1] + Reverse(str.Substring(0, str.Length - 1));
}

其他回答

这是一个非常棘手的问题。

我推荐使用Array。大多数情况下是反向的,因为它是原生编码的,维护和理解非常简单。

在我测试的所有情况下,它似乎都优于StringBuilder。

public string Reverse(string text)
{
   if (text == null) return null;

   // this was posted by petebob as well 
   char[] array = text.ToCharArray();
   Array.Reverse(array);
   return new String(array);
}

对于特定长度的字符串,使用Xor的第二种方法更快。

    public static string ReverseXor(string s)
    {
        if (s == null) return null;
        char[] charArray = s.ToCharArray();
        int len = s.Length - 1;

        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++, len--)
        {
            charArray[i] ^= charArray[len];
            charArray[len] ^= charArray[i];
            charArray[i] ^= charArray[len];
        }

        return new string(charArray);
    }

注意:如果你想支持完整的Unicode UTF16字符集,请阅读此。而是使用那里的实现。它可以通过使用上述算法之一进一步优化,并在反转字符后遍历字符串以清理它。

下面是StringBuilder和Array之间的性能比较。逆向和异或法。

对于短字符串,Xor似乎更快。

看看维基百科的条目。它们实现了字符串。反向扩展法。这允许你编写这样的代码:

string s = "olleh";
s.Reverse();

他们还使用ToCharArray/Reverse组合,这是这个问题的其他答案所建议的。源代码如下所示:

public static string Reverse(this string input)
{
    char[] chars = input.ToCharArray();
    Array.Reverse(chars);
    return new String(chars);
}

如果字符串包含Unicode数据(严格地说,非bmp字符),其他已经发布的方法将破坏它,因为在反转字符串时不能交换高和低代理代码单元的顺序。(关于这方面的更多信息可以在我的博客上找到。)

下面的代码示例将正确地反转包含非bmp字符的字符串,例如,“\U00010380\U00010381”(ugartic Letter Alpa, ugartic Letter Beta)。

public static string Reverse(this string input)
{
    if (input == null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException("input");

    // allocate a buffer to hold the output
    char[] output = new char[input.Length];
    for (int outputIndex = 0, inputIndex = input.Length - 1; outputIndex < input.Length; outputIndex++, inputIndex--)
    {
        // check for surrogate pair
        if (input[inputIndex] >= 0xDC00 && input[inputIndex] <= 0xDFFF &&
            inputIndex > 0 && input[inputIndex - 1] >= 0xD800 && input[inputIndex - 1] <= 0xDBFF)
        {
            // preserve the order of the surrogate pair code units
            output[outputIndex + 1] = input[inputIndex];
            output[outputIndex] = input[inputIndex - 1];
            outputIndex++;
            inputIndex--;
        }
        else
        {
            output[outputIndex] = input[inputIndex];
        }
    }

    return new string(output);
}

使用Substring怎么样

static string ReverseString(string text)
{
    string sub = "";
    int indexCount = text.Length - 1;
    for (int i = indexCount; i > -1; i--)
    {
        sub = sub + text.Substring(i, 1);
    }
    return sub;
}

如果你可以使用LINQ(。NET Framework 3.5+)而不是只跟随一行代码就可以得到简短的代码。不要忘记添加using System.Linq;来访问Enumerable。相反:

public string ReverseString(string srtVarable)
{
    return new string(srtVarable.Reverse().ToArray());
}

注:

不是最快的版本——根据马丁·尼德尔的说法,比最快的版本慢了5.7倍。 这段代码和许多其他选项一样,完全忽略了所有类型的多字符组合,因此只能在家庭作业和不包含此类字符的字符串中使用。有关正确处理此类组合的实现,请参阅本问题中的另一个答案。
