string-manipulation

Hi, I am scheduled to have an onsite interview so I am preparing few basic questions. According to the company profile, they are big on string manipulation questions. So far i am manually coded these functions: 1) String length, copy, concat, remove white space 2) Reverse 3) Anagrams 4) Palindrome

Please can some can give me a list of more classic string questions which i can practice before going there.
