Reverse Integer

Detailed guide and Python implementation for the 'Reverse Integer' problem.

Problem Statement

Easy

Given a signed 32-bit integer x, return x with its digits reversed. If reversing x causes the value to go outside the signed 32-bit integer range [-2^31, 2^31 - 1], then return 0.

Assume the environment does not allow you to store 64-bit integers (signed or unsigned).

Write a function reverse(x: int) -> int.

Constraints
  • -2^31 <= x <= 2^31 - 1

Examples

Example 1
Input
x = 123
Output
321
Explanation

Reversing 123 gives 321.

Example 2
Input
x = -123
Output
-321
Explanation

Reversing -123 gives -321.

Example 3
Input
x = 120
Output
21
Explanation

Reversing 120 gives 021, which is 21.

Need a Hint?
Consider using Bit Manipulation-specific data structures like sets or heaps.
Edge Cases to Watch
  • Empty input structures
  • Single element inputs
  • Large numerical bounds
