Java reverse an int value without using array

Question

Can anyone explain to me how to reverse an integer without using array or String. I got this code from online, but not really understand why + input % 10 and divide again.

while (input != 0) {
    reversedNum = reversedNum * 10 + input % 10;
    input = input / 10;   
}

And how to do use this sample code to reverse only odd number. Example I got this input 12345, then it will reverse the odd number to output 531.

Answer 1

public static int reverse(int x) {
    boolean negetive = false;
    if (x < 0) {
        x = Math.abs(x);
        negative = true;
    }

    int y = 0, i = 0;
    while (x > 0) {
        if (i > 0) {
            y *= 10;
        }

        y += x % 10;
        x = x / 10;
        i++;
    }
    return negative ? -y : y;
}

Java solution without the loop. Faster response.

int numberToReverse;//your number 
StringBuilder sb=new StringBuilder();
sb.append(numberToReverse);
sb=sb.reverse();
String intermediateString=sb.toString();
int reversedNumber=Integer.parseInt(intermediateString);

Reversing integer

  int n, reverse = 0;
  Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
  n = in.nextInt();

  while(n != 0)
  {
      reverse = reverse * 10;
      reverse = reverse + n%10;
      n = n/10;
  }

  System.out.println("Reverse of the number is " + reverse);

Java reverse an int value - Principles

1. Modding (%) the input int by 10 will extract off the rightmost digit. example: (1234 % 10) = 4

2. Multiplying an integer by 10 will "push it left" exposing a zero to the right of that number, example: (5 * 10) = 50

3. Dividing an integer by 10 will remove the rightmost digit. (75 / 10) = 7

Java reverse an int value - Pseudocode:

a. Extract off the rightmost digit of your input number. (1234 % 10) = 4

b. Take that digit (4) and add it into a new reversedNum.

c. Multiply reversedNum by 10 (4 * 10) = 40, this exposes a zero to the right of your (4).

d. Divide the input by 10, (removing the rightmost digit). (1234 / 10) = 123

e. Repeat at step a with 123

Java reverse an int value - Working code

public int reverseInt(int input) {
    long reversedNum = 0;
    long input_long = input;

    while (input_long != 0) {
        reversedNum = reversedNum * 10 + input_long % 10;
        input_long = input_long / 10;
    }

    if (reversedNum > Integer.MAX_VALUE || reversedNum < Integer.MIN_VALUE) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException();
    }
    return (int) reversedNum;
}

You will never do anything like this in the real work-world. However, the process by which you use to solve it without help is what separates people who can solve problems from the ones who want to, but can't unless they are spoon fed by nice people on the blogoblags.

Answer 5

public static void reverse(int number) {
    while (number != 0) {
        int remainder = number % 10;
        System.out.print(remainder);
        number = number / 10;
    }

    System.out.println();
}

What this does is, strip the last digit (within the 10s place) and add it to the front and then divides the number by 10, removing the last digit.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Reverse_order_integer {
    private static Scanner scan;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("\t\t\tEnter Number which you want to reverse.\n");
        scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        int number = scan.nextInt();
        int rev_number = reverse(number);
        System.out.println("\t\t\tYour reverse Number is = \"" + rev_number
                           + "\".\n");
    }

    private static int reverse(int number) {
        int backup = number;
        int count = 0;
        while (number != 0) {
            number = number / 10;
            count++;
        }
        number = backup;
        int sum = 0;
        for (int i = count; i > 0; i--) {
            int sum10 = 1;
            int last = number % 10;
            for (int j = 1; j < i; j++) {
                sum10 = sum10 * 10;
            }
            sum = sum + (last * sum10);
            number = number / 10;
        }
        return sum;
    }
}
