LeetCode_344. Reverse String

344. Reverse String

Easy

Write a function that reverses a string. The input string is given as an array of characters char[].

Do not allocate extra space for another array, you must do this by modifying the input array in-place with O(1) extra memory.

You may assume all the characters consist of printable ascii characters.

Example 1:

Input: ["h","e","l","l","o"]
Output: ["o","l","l","e","h"]

Example 2:

Input: ["H","a","n","n","a","h"]
Output: ["h","a","n","n","a","H"]

	public void helper(char[] s, int left, int right) {
		if (left >= right) {
			return;

		char tmp = s[left];
		s[left++] = s[right];

		helper(s, left, right);
	}
