Answer:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class num10 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a word");
String word = in.nextLine();
String reversed = "";
//Get the length of the string entered
int length = word.length();
//Loop through the string and reverse th string
for ( int i = length - 1; i >= 0; i-- )
reversed = reversed + word.charAt(i);
//Compare the two strings "word" and "reversed"
if (word.equals(reversed))
System.out.println(word+" is a palindrome");
else
System.out.println(word+" is not a palindrome");
}
}
Explanation:
Since we know that a palindrome word is a word that reads the same forward and backward, The Idea here is:
- To obtain a word from a user.
- Use a for loop to reverse the word and store in another variable
- Use if....else to compare the two strings and determine if they are equal, if they are equal then the word is palindrome.
