Reverse a String Challenge

Welcome to the fun and exciting world of strings! In this challenge, you'll create a function that flips a string inside out, like putting your shirt on backwards but with words! This is a great way to practice working with strings and improve your problem-solving skills.

Imagine you have a long word like "strawberry" but you want to know what it looks like backwards! Wouldn't it be cool if you could have a program that does it for you? That's exactly what you're going to create.

Your mission is to write a function called reverse_string that takes a single word as input and returns that word spelled backwards.

Here's what you'll do:

  • Take a word as a string.
  • Reverse the word.
  • Return the reversed word.

Examples:

reverse_string("hello") # returns "olleh" reverse_string("world") # returns "dlrow" reverse_string("!abc123") # returns "321cba!"

Think of it like a magic mirror where left becomes right and right becomes left. Let's see if you can solve this string puzzle!
