Reverse a char array in C#

Question

I am trying to learn C#. I want to enter some text and for it to come out reversed. It reverses it, but multiple times, as many times as the inputted text is long. So hello comes out as olleholleholleholleholleh.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace Reversed_Array
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Enter text to be reversed");
            string inputText = Console.ReadLine();
            char[] myChar = inputText.ToCharArray();
            Array.Reverse(myChar);

            foreach (char character in myChar)
            {
                Console.Write(myChar);
            }
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

I wanted to experiment with converting a string into a char array. Thought I would note this because yes I don't need the char array.

Solution 1

Because every time you write the whole array not a single character, try this:

 foreach (char character in myChar)
 {
     Console.Write(character);
 }

Solution 2

 for( int i = myChar.Length -1 ; i >= 0 ; --i )
 {
      Console.Write(myChar[i]);
 }

Solution 3

There's no need to have a special array, do a reverse etc., just print out characters backward:

static void Main(string[] args) 
{
    Console.WriteLine("Enter text to be reversed");
    string inputText = Console.ReadLine();

    // Backward loop
    for (int i = inputText.Length - 1; i >= 0; --i)
      Console.Write(inputText[i]);
}
