C++ How To Reverse a Number


Share

Reverse a Number

Reverse the digits of a number by taking one digit at a time from the end:

Example

int number = 1234;
int reversed = 0;

while (number != 0) {
  int digit = number % 10;
  reversed = reversed * 10 + digit;
  number = number / 10;
}

cout << "Reversed: " << reversed;

Try it Yourself »

Explanation:
number % 10 gives the last digit (4 for 1234).
reversed * 10 + digit moves the reversed digits one place to the left, and adds the new digit at the end.
number / 10 removes the last digit. The loop stops when there are no digits left.
