Q:
Given a string and an integer k, you need to reverse the first k characters for every 2k characters counting from the start of the string. If there are less than k characters left, reverse all of them. If there are less than 2k but greater than or equal to k characters, then reverse the first k characters and left the other as original.
Example:
Input: s = "abcdefg", k = 2
Output: "bacdfeg"
Restrictions:
1. The string consists of lower English letters only.
2. Length of the given string and k will in the range [1, 10000]
A:
class Solution(object):
def reverseStr(self, s, k):
"""
:type s: str
:type k: int
:rtype: str
"""
lenS = len(s)
slist = list(s)
for i in range(0,lenS,2*k):
slist[i:i+k] = reversed(slist[i:i+k])
return "".join(slist)
