Question

Write a application that can determine if a 5 digit number you input is a palindrome. If the number is a palindrome then print "The number is a palindrome." If it is not then print "The number is NOT a palindrome"

Answer 1

Written in Python:

num = int(input("Number: "))

strnum = str(num)

if len(strnum) !=5:

print("Length must be 5")

else:

if(strnum[::-1] == strnum):

print("The number is a palindrome.")

else:

print("The number is NOT palindrome.")

Step-by-step explanation:

This prompts user for input

num = int(input("Number: "))

This converts user input to string

strnum = str(num)

This checks the length of the string

if len(strnum) !=5:

print("Length must be 5") If length is not 5, this prompt is printed

else:If otherwise

if(strnum[::-1] == strnum): The compares the string reversed with the original

print("The number is a palindrome.") If both are the same, this line is executed

else:

print("The number is NOT palindrome.") If otherwise, this line is executed
