Given an input string s, reverse the order of the words.

A word is defined as a sequence of non-space characters. The words in s will be separated by at least one space.

Return a string of the words in reverse order concatenated by a single space.

Note that s may contain leading or trailing spaces or multiple spaces between two words. The returned string should only have a single space separating the words. Do not include any extra spaces.

  Example 1:

Input: s = "the sky is blue" Output: "blue is sky the"

Example 2:

Input: s = " hello world " Output: "world hello" Explanation: Your reversed string should not contain leading or trailing spaces.

Example 3:

Input: s = "a good example" Output: "example good a" Explanation: You need to reduce multiple spaces between two words to a single space in the reversed string.

  Constraints:

1 <= s.length <= 10⁴
s contains English letters (upper-case and lower-case), digits, and spaces ' '.
There is at least one word in s.

  Follow-up: If the string data type is mutable in your language, can you solve it in-place with O(1) extra space?
