#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char* original_string="abcdefg";
char* reverse_string;
char* temp;
int length_original=0;
int length_reverse=0;
temp=original_string;
 
//find the length of string
while(*temp!=NULL)
{
 temp++;
length_original++;
}
//assign memory to reverse_string
reverse_string=new char[length_original];
while(length_original>0)
{
 reverse_string[length_reverse++]=*--temp;
 length_original--;
}
//store null as last character
reverse_string[length_reverse]='\0';
cout<<"Original string:"<<original_string;
cout<<"\nReverse string:"<<reverse_string;
return 0;
}

Output:

Original string:abcdefg
Reverse string:gfedcba
