Reverse Every Letter in a String

EasyPython

Problem

Given a string, reverse every letter in it.

Treat uppercase and lowercase characters as letters, and preserve every non-letter character at its original index. Return the transformed string.

Input/Output: Implement reverse_letters(s), where s is a string and the result is a string.

Example 1: s = "ab-cd" returns "dc-ba" because only letters move.

Example 2: s = "a-bC-dEf-ghIj" returns "j-Ih-gfE-dCba".

Constraints: 0 <= len(s) <= 1000; s contains printable ASCII characters.

Constraints

  • 0 <= len(s) <= 1000
  • s contains printable ASCII characters
  • Only alphabetic characters are reversed
  • Every non-letter remains at its original index
