Question

Problem:

Write a program in c++ to read a string and then determine whether it is a palindrome. Use the following data from a text file to test your program:

input.txt data:

M AD AM
madam
Repaper
463364
57234275
Able was I ere I saw Elba
ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA
the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy yellow cat
Madam, I'm Adam
A man, a plan, a canal: Panama!
Never odd or even!

Change the characters to all upper case or all lower case using tpupper() or tolower(). Use 3 functions.

The output needs to look like this for each phrase:

**********************************************************************************
Original Str: M ADA M len: 8


Original String: M ADA M len: 8
Reverse String: MADA M len: 8

match: str: M rev_str: M
match: str: A rev_str: A
match: str: D rev_str: D
match: str: A rev_str: A
match: str: M rev_str: M

********** PALINDROME !!!!!!!! *****************

***********************************************************************************
Original Str: 57234275 len: 8


Original String: 57234275 len: 8
Reverse String: 57234275 len: 8

match: str: 5 rev_str: M
match: str: 7 rev_str: A
match: str: 2 rev_str: D
no match: str: 3 rev_str: A


----- Not a Palindrome -----
