Reverse Integers Without Built-ins

MediumPython

Problem

Reverse positive and negative integers without using built-in functions. Implement reverse_integer(x) using arithmetic operations only, without converting the integer to a string or using built-in reversal, absolute-value, or digit-processing functions. Return the integer with its digits reversed while preserving its sign; return 0 for input 0.

Constraints

  • -2^31 <= x <= 2^31 - 1
  • The input is an integer.
  • Do not convert x to a string.
  • Do not use built-in reversal, absolute-value, or digit-processing functions.

Function Signature

def reverse_integer(x):
