I got the correct output but I need an optimised solution for this.

input:
I* Am Not String

output:
g* ni rtS toNmAI

What I have tried:

a = input()
b = a[::-1]
op = 65
po = 97
c = []
j = 0
for i in b:
    if (i>=chr(op) and i<=chr(op+25)) or (i>=chr(po) and i<=chr(po+25)):
        c.append(i)
for i in range(0,len(a)):
    if (a[i]>=chr(op) and a[i]<=chr(op+25)) or (a[i]>=chr(po) and a[i]<=chr(po+25)):
        print(c[j],end='')
        j+=1 
    else:
        print(a[i],end='')

Do not use numbers (65, 97) to represent characters, it makes the code difficult to read. Use the proper characters ('A', 'a'). The optimised solution would be to swap elements from the first character to the hals-way point.

Thank you

Try this:

Python
def reverse(input_str):
    new_str = input_str.replace(' ','').replace('*','')[::-1]
    index = 0
    for c in input_str:
        if c == ' ' or c == '*':
            new_str = new_str[:index] + c + new_str[index:]
        index +=1
    return new_str

txt = "I* Am Not String"
print(txt) 
print(reverse(txt))
