Check for a palindrome using Javascript
What is a palindrome?
Oxford Dictionary defines a palindrome as a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backwards as forwards, e.g. madam or nurses run.
Let's use Javascript to check if a word is a palindrome
Function isPalindrome(val){
Val = val + '';
For(let i = 0, j = val.length - 1; i < j; i++, j--) {
If(val.charAt(i) !== val.charAt(j)){
Return false;
}
}
Return true;
}
First, convert a non-string to a string. If the value has a middle character, there is no need to compare it. For example racecar.
isPalindrome(elle)
isPalindrome('rotator')
This is one of many solutions available to check if a word is a palindrome.
