java string palindrome code example

Example 1: Java program to check palindrome string using recursion

import java.util.Scanner;
public class RecursivePalindromeJava 
{
   // to check if string is palindrome using recursion
   public static boolean checkPalindrome(String str)
   {
      if(str.length() == 0 || str.length() == 1)
         return true; 
      if(str.charAt(0) == str.charAt(str.length() - 1))
         return checkPalindrome(str.substring(1, str.length() - 1));
      return false;
   }
   public static void main(String[]args)
   {
      Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
      System.out.println("Please enter a string : ");
      String strInput = sc.nextLine();
      if(checkPalindrome(strInput))
      {
         System.out.println(strInput + " is palindrome");
      }
      else
      {
         System.out.println(strInput + " not a palindrome");
      }
      sc.close();
   }
}

Example 2: Java program to check whether string is palindrome using library methods

public class StringPalindromeJava
{
   public static void isPalindrome(String str)
   {
      String strReverse = new StringBuffer(str).reverse().toString();
       // checking for palindrome
      if(str.equals(strReverse))
      {
         System.out.println(str + " is palindrome string.");
      }
      else
      {
         System.out.println(str + " is not palindrome string.");
      }
   }
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      // palindrome java
      isPalindrome("eye");
      isPalindrome("rotator");
   }
}

Example 3: palindrome function java

package test
//The function below checks if a string is a palindrome
//True = Is a palindrome & False = Not a palindrome
	public boolean isPalindromString(String text){
    	String reverse = reverse(text);
      	if(text.equals(reverse))
    	{
        	return true;
      	}
      
      	return false;
    }
//This function returns the reverse String of its input.
//Ex. if given "hello", it will return "olleh"
	public String reverse(String input)
    {     
		if(input == null || input.isEmpty())
        {
			return input;
        }
        	return input.charAt(input.length()- 1) + reverse(input.substring(0, input.length() - 1));
    }
