Reverse Array in O(n)

EasyPython

Problem

Reverse an array in O(n) time complexity without using high-level language-specific reverse helpers. Implement reverse_array(arr) to reverse the input list in place and return it. The input is a Python list of values, and the output must contain the same values in reverse order.

Constraints

  • 0 <= len(arr) <= 100000
  • Array elements may be integers, strings, or other values.
  • Reverse the list in place.
  • Do not use reverse(), reversed(), slicing, or another high-level reversal helper.

Function Signature
