Question

write a C++ program for the following A palindrome is any word or phrase which reads the same backwards as it does forward. For instance the word Bob is a palindrome. Napoleon is also attributed as saying the famous palindrome Able was I ere I saw Elba. As a counter example the phrase Computer Science is fun is NOT a palindrome. For this exercise you will implement a program which asks the user for a string. The program will then output whether or not the phrase is a palindrome. Hint: use an array of characters to determine if the string is a palindrome. Sample output: Enter a phrase: Rise to vote sir “Rise to vote sir” IS A PALINDROME

Explanation / Answer

Hi, I am trying to provide a compact solution for the above query.

Here the program will execute the exact output which comprises with your requirement.

HAPPY LEARNING :-)

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

   //Variables and Arrays

   char Phrase[80];

    char Reverse[80];

    char* Palindrome = Reverse;

    int i, j, test = 1;

    cout << "Please enter a sentence to be reversed: ";
    cin >> Phrase;

    cin.getline(Phrase, 80);
    int length = strlen(Phrase);

    for(i = 0; i < (length/2); i++) // do a loop from 0 to half the length of the string
    {
        if(test == 1) // test for palindrome
        {
            if(Phrase[i] != Phrase[length-i-1]) // check if the characters match
            {
                test = 0; // if they don't set the indicator to false
            }
        }
        else
        {
            break; // if it is not a palindrome, exit the for loop
        }
    }

    if(test == 1) //test to print out the phrase if it's a palindrome
    {
        cout << "Phrase/Word is a Palindrome." << endl;

        for(j = strlen(Phrase) - 1; j >= 0; Palindrome++, j--)
        {
            *Palindrome = Phrase[j];
            cout << "The reverse is: " << Reverse << endl << endl;
        }
    }
    else
    {
        cout << "Phrase/Word is not a Palindrome." << endl;
    }

    system("Pause");
    return 0;
}
