Given an input string, reverse the string word by word.
For example,
Given s = "the sky is blue
",
return "blue is sky the
".
Clarification:
- What constitutes a word?
A sequence of non-space characters constitutes a word. - Could the input string contain leading or trailing spaces?
Yes. However, your reversed string should not contain leading or trailing spaces. - How about multiple spaces between two words?
Reduce them to a single space in the reversed string.
