Mirror Word 🪞

Time for one of Python's coolest party tricks: reversing a string.

word = "banana"
print(word[::-1])     # ➜ ananab

That [::-1] is called a slice. The -1 means "walk through it backwards, one letter at a time." It works on any string. 🔄

print("stop"[::-1])   # ➜ pots

Your mission

Take the word stressed, print it backwards, and find out what programmers have always known: it's the sweetest word in the dictionary. 🍰
