Python Check Palindrome String Program

This program helps you to learn the fundamental structure and syntax of Python programming.

Try This Code
# Program to check if a string is a palindrome

s = input("Enter a string: ")

normalized = "".join(ch.lower() for ch in s if not ch.isspace())

if normalized == normalized[::-1]:
    print("Palindrome")
else:
    print("Not a palindrome")
Output
Enter a string: Never odd or even
Palindrome

Understanding Check Palindrome String

We normalize by:

Lowercasing all characters
Removing spaces

Then we compare the string to its reverse using slicing.

Note: To write and run Python programs, you need to set up the local environment on your computer. Refer to the complete article Setting up Python Development Environment. If you do not want to set up the local environment on your computer, you can also use online IDE to write and run your Python programs.
