There are many instances when you need to reboot your iOS device. However, there is no default reboot option in stock iOS and when your press the Lock/Power button, you get a Slide to Power Off option.

This menu includes Power Off, Reboot, Respring, and Safe Mode options, thus making it easier to restart the device as you want.
