Description

Write a java program to reverse a given string using recursion without using any predefined function.This program checks the understanding of recursion in programming language and also checks the programming sense.Here, the method reverseString() is called recursively to revrse a given string.Following is the complete program. 

package com.devglan;

public class StringReversal {

        String reversedString = "";

        public String reverseString(String str){

            if(str.length() == 1){
                return str;
            } else {
                reversedString += str.charAt(str.length()-1)
                        +reverseString(str.substring(0,str.length()-1));
                return reversedString;
            }
        }

        public static void main(String a[]){
            StringReversal reversal = new StringReversal();
            System.out.println("Reversed string - " + reversal.reverseString("planet"));
        }
    }

If the string length is 1, then return the same string.Else, extract the last character and append in an existing new string and again call the same method recursively by removing the last character which has already been appended to the new string.
