TO CHECK WHETHER THE GIVEN STRING IS PALINDROME

Here is  the program to check if the entered string is a palindrome or not. As we have seen in the earlier cases, Palindrome is a string segment, which reads same from both the directions. The same method is implemented here in the program also.

Logic :  The given string is reversed using a method, which puts the reversed string in the resultant string from the EOL (End Of Line). After reversing, it compares if strings are one and the same. If so, sets a flag, "pal" as true (i.e. 1), and hence prints out the result.

The problem can also solved in a bit sophisticated method, where we check  without reversing the string, but directly.

 

 

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int stpal(char str1[50], char str2[50]);
void main()
{
      char str[50], rev[50];
      int pal;
      clrscr();
      printf("\n\n\t ENTER A STRING...: ");
      gets(str);
      pal = stpal(str, rev);
      printf("\n\t THE REVERSED STRING IS...: ");
      puts(rev);
      if(pal)
            printf("\n\t THE ENTERED STRING IS A PALINDROME");
      else
            printf("\n\t THE ENTERED STRING IS NOT A PALINDROME");
      getch();
}
int stpal(char str1[50], char str2[50])
{
      int i = 0, len = 0, r = 0, pal = 1;
      while(str1[len]!='\0')
      len++;
      for(i=len-1; i>=0; i--)
      {
            str2[r] = str1[i];
            r++;
      }
      str2[r] = '\0';
      for(i=0; i<=len-1; i++)
      {
            if(str1[i] == str2[i])
                  pal = 1;
            else
            {
                  pal = 0;
                  break;
            }
      }
      return pal;
}
