Algorithm for To determine if the given string is a palindrome or not

Description:

If the reverse of a string is equal to original string then it is called palindrome

Algorithm:

Step 1: start

Step 2: read the string

Step 3: store reverse of the given string in a temporary string

Step 4: compare the two strings

Step 5: if both are equal then print palindrome

Step 6: otherwise print not palindrome

Step 7: stop

Output:


1. Enter the string:malayalam
The given string malayalam is a palindrome
2. Enter the string:india
The given string india is not a palindrome

Conclusion:

The program is error free
