Enhance String Manipulation Utility with Robust Reversal Implementation and Comprehensive Testing

Description

Summary of Work

Overview

This pull request consolidates and improves the string reversal functionality across multiple implementations, providing a robust, flexible, and thoroughly tested utility for string manipulation.

Motivation

• Unify string reversal approaches
• Ensure consistent behavior across different implementation variants
• Provide a comprehensive test suite that covers edge cases and potential failure modes

Key Improvements

• Developed a manual string reversal algorithm that works with various input types
• Implemented rigorous input validation and error handling
• Created extensive test coverage for different string manipulation scenarios
• Ensured consistent behavior across multiple implementation approaches

Benefits

• Enhanced code reliability
• Improved type safety
• Comprehensive test coverage
• Flexible string manipulation utility

Changes Made

• Implemented manual string reversal algorithm in src/string_reversal.py
• Consolidated string reversal test cases
• Added support for:
  • Standard string reversal
  • Empty string handling
  • Unicode character support
  • Special character preservation
• Implemented robust type checking
• Unified error handling for invalid inputs
• Extended test coverage across multiple scenarios

Tests and Verification

• Verified functionality with 15 comprehensive test cases
• Tested various input types:
  • Standard strings
  • Empty strings
  • Single character strings
  • Strings with spaces
  • Special character strings
  • Unicode strings
• Validated error handling for invalid inputs
• Ensured 100% test coverage for string reversal functions
• Confirmed consistent behavior across different implementation variants
