`Reverse1' example program: reverse a string; demonstrates string handling
Reverse1.java

// CountSpace1.java
// A program that reverses a text string.
// Note that there are many ways to do this; this program only demonstrates one way 
// Kevin Boone, August 1999

import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;

public class Reverse1 extends Applet
{
public void paint (Graphics g)
	{
	// 'text' is the String to be reversed
	String text = "Fred Bloggs";
	
	// Start by creating a character array of exactly the same length as `text'.
	//  This is because Java allows individual elements of an array to be changed,
	//  but not individual characters of a String
	char reversedText[] = new char[text.length()];

	// Now move each character in `text' to the right place in `reversedText'
	for (int i = 0; i < text.length(); i++)
		reversedText[i] = text.charAt(text.length() - i - 1);

	// `reversedText' is an array; Java will not allow us to use `drawString' to
	//   print an array (it can only print Strings). So we create a new String
	//   that has exactly the same text as `reversedtext'
	String reversedTextString = new String(reversedText);

	// Now print the String
	g.drawString (reversedTextString, 20, 40);
	}
