C++ Exercises: Create a new string from a given string after swapping last two characters

C++ Basic Algorithm: Exercise-73 with Solution

Write a C++ program to create a new string from a given string after swapping last two characters.

Sample Solution:

C++ Code :

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

string test(string s1)
        {
          if (s1.length() > 1)
            {
                return s1.substr(0, s1.length() - 2) + s1[s1.length() - 1] + s1[s1.length() - 2];
            }
            else
            {
                return s1;
            }
        }
        
int main() 
 {
  cout << test("Hello") << endl;  
  cout << test("Python") << endl; 
  cout << test("PHP") << endl;  
  cout << test("JS") << endl;  
  cout << test("C") << endl;  
  return 0;    
}

Sample Output:

Helol
Pythno
PPH
SJ
C

Previous: Write a C++ program to create a new string taking the first character from a given string and the last character from another given string. If the length of any given string is 0, use '#' as its missing character.
Next: Write a C++ program to check if a given string begins with 'abc' or 'xyz'. If the string begins with 'abc' or 'xyz' return 'abc' or 'xyz' otherwise return the empty string.
