Golang doesn't seem to have an inbuilt function to reverse a given string. Here is my proposal for a basic function to reverse a string in Golang.

func Reverse(s string) string {
    var reversed string
    for _, v := range s {
        reversed = string(v) + result
    }
    return reversed
}

This function can be added to src/strings/strings.go, along with other string functions such as explode, trim, uppercase etc.

Hi,

this has been proposed, and rejected, in the past. See #14777 and #36887, in particular #36887 (comment):

strings.Reverse is a duplicate of #14777. It remains not needed often enough to merit inclusion in the standard library.

Closing here as a dup.
