Unified String Reversal: Enhanced Type Safety and Cross-Module Consistency

Description

Summary of Work

This pull request consolidates and standardizes string reversal implementations across multiple utility modules, focusing on improving code quality, type safety, and maintainability.

By unifying the approach to string reversal, we've created a more robust and consistent implementation that handles various edge cases while maintaining high performance and clear error handling. The changes provide a reliable, type-safe string manipulation utility that can be confidently used across the project.

Changes Made

1. Implementation Standardization

• Aligned string reversal logic across multiple utility modules
• Introduced consistent type hinting for improved type safety
• Implemented uniform error handling for invalid input types

2. Edge Case Handling

• Added explicit handling for empty strings
• Ensured correct behavior with single-character strings
• Maintained support for Unicode and special character strings

3. Performance Optimization

• Preserved efficient in-place string reversal algorithm
• Minimized memory overhead during string manipulation
• Maintained O(n) time complexity for string reversal

4. Test Coverage Improvements

• Expanded test suite to cover multiple input scenarios
• Added tests for edge cases and error conditions
• Ensured consistent behavior across different input types

Tests and Verification

1. Comprehensive Test Verification

• Ran full test suite to validate implementation changes
• Confirmed 100% pass rate across all test scenarios
• Verified type checking and error handling mechanisms

2. Test Case Coverage

• Validated standard string reversal
• Tested empty and single-character string scenarios
• Checked Unicode and special character string handling
• Ensured robust invalid input type detection

3. Cross-Module Consistency

• Verified identical behavior in string utility modules
• Confirmed no regressions in existing functionality
• Maintained original implementation intent while improving quality
