You are given a string ‘S’. You are also given ‘M’ integers in an array ‘A’. You perform ‘M’ operations on this string. The operations are given in an array ‘A’ of size ‘M’.

You perform the operations in the order they appear in the array ‘A’. In the ‘i’th operation, you reverse the substring of ‘S’ from the position ‘A[i]’ to ‘len(S)’ - ‘A[i]’ - 1 (0 based).

Your task is to find the string after performing all the operations.

Example :
‘S’ = “aabcd”, ‘M’ = 2, ‘A’ = [0, 1]
After 1st operation i.e, reversing from [0, 4], ‘S’ = “dcbaa”.
After 2nd operation i.e, reversing from [1, 3], ‘S’ = “dabca”.
Hence, the answer is “dabca”.
