static void Main(string[] args)
{
    string str = "";
    string reverse = "";
    Console.WriteLine("Enter the value to reverse");
    str = Console.ReadLine();
    int length = 0;
    length = str.Length - 1;
    while(length >= 0)
    {
        reverse = reverse + str[length];
        length--;
    }
    Console.Write("Reverse string is {0}", reverse);
    Console.ReadKey();
}

我们可以使用两个指针，一个指向字符串的开始，另一个指向字符串的结束。然后每次交换第i个和第j个指针的值，第i个指针的值递增+1，第j个指针的值递减-1。

string s = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(s + "\n");
char[] charArray = s.ToCharArray();
int i = 0, j = s.Length - 1;
while (i < j) {
    char temp = charArray[i];
    charArray[i] = charArray[j];
    charArray[j] = temp;
    i++; j--;
}
string ans = new string(charArray);
Console.WriteLine(ans + "\n");
// Input: hello
// Output: olleh

我在面试中也被问到类似的问题。这是我的回答，尽管它在性能上可能没有其他答案那么快。我的问题是“创建一个类，它可以有一个反向打印字符串的方法”:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

namespace BackwardsTest
{
    class PrintBackwards
    {
        public static void print(string param)
        {
            if (param == null || param.Length == 0)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("string is null");
                return;
            }
            List<char> list = new List<char>();
            string returned = null;
            foreach(char d in param)
            {
                list.Add(d);
            }
            for(int i = list.Count(); i > 0; i--)
            {
                returned = returned + list[list.Count - 1];
                list.RemoveAt(list.Count - 1);
            }
            Console.WriteLine(returned);
        }
    }
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string test = "I want to print backwards";
            PrintBackwards.print(test);
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
        }
    }
}

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。

            foreach (int l in lengths)
            {
                int iterations = 10000;

对于短字符串，Xor似乎更快。

如果你想玩一个非常危险的游戏，那么这是目前为止最快的方法(比Array快4倍左右)。反向方法)。这是使用指针的原地反向。

请注意，我真的不建议在任何情况下使用这个方法(在这里看看为什么不应该使用这个方法的一些原因)，但有趣的是，它可以做到，而且一旦您打开不安全的代码，字符串就不是真正不可变的。

public static unsafe string Reverse(string text)
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(text))
    {
        return text;
    }

    fixed (char* pText = text)
    {
        char* pStart = pText;
        char* pEnd = pText + text.Length - 1;
        for (int i = text.Length / 2; i >= 0; i--)
        {
            char temp = *pStart;
            *pStart++ = *pEnd;
            *pEnd-- = temp;
        }

        return text;
    }
}

好吧，为了“不要重复你自己”，我提供以下解决方案:

public string Reverse(string text)
{
   return Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.StrReverse(text);
}

我的理解是这个实现，在VB中默认可用。NET，正确地处理Unicode字符。
