In Lua, there are many functions that are useful to manipulate strings. We can use the **`string.reverse`** function if we need to reverse a string.

#    
## Syntax
```lua
string = string.reverse(string)
```
## Parameters
The function only needs a valid string as a mandatory parameter.
## Return value
The `reverse` function will reverse the string given as input.
## Code
In this example, we will reverse the string `"Hello, Educative!"`:


ourstring = "Hello, Educative!"
print(string.reverse(ourstring))

#    
## Expected output
```
!evitacudE ,olleH
```
