palindrome program in java 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: generate palindrome java

//This function generates a palindrom by recursively reversing a String,
//recursively add it and checks if it's a palindrom

public static String generatePalindrom(String s) {
	return s.equals(reverseString(s)) ? s
				: generatePalindrom(String.valueOf(Integer.parseInt(s) + Integer.parseInt(reverseString(s))));
}

public static String reverseString(String s) {
	return s.length() == 1 ? s : s.charAt(s.length() - 1) + reverseString(s.substring(0, s.length() - 1));
}

Example 4: easy palindrome program in java

import java.util.*;   
class PalindromeExample2  
{  
   public static void main(String args[])  
   {  
      String original, reverse = ""; // Objects of String class  
      Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);   
      System.out.println("Enter a string/number to check if it is a palindrome");  
      original = in.nextLine();   
      int length = original.length();   
      for ( int i = length - 1; i >= 0; i-- )  
         reverse = reverse + original.charAt(i);  
      if (original.equals(reverse))  
         System.out.println("Entered string/number is a palindrome.");  
      else  
         System.out.println("Entered string/number isn't a palindrome.");   
   }  
}

Example 5: String palindrome in java using array

// String palindrome in java using array
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class StringPalindromeUsingArray 
{
   public static void main(String[] args) 
   {
      System.out.println("Please enter string to check whether string is palindrome: ");
      Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
      String strInput = sc.nextLine();
      char[] chArray = strInput.toCharArray();
      int size = chArray.length;
      char[] chGiven = Arrays.copyOf(chArray, chArray.length);
      for(int a = 0; a < size / 2; a++) 
      {
         char temp = chArray[a];
         chArray[a] = chArray[size - a - 1];
         chArray[size - a - 1] = temp;
      }
      System.out.println("Given array: " + Arrays.toString(chGiven));
      System.out.println("String palindrome using array: " + Arrays.toString(chArray));
      if(Arrays.equals(chArray, chGiven)) 
      {
         System.out.println("string is palindrome.");
      }
      else 
      {
         System.out.println("string is not a palindrome.");
      }
      sc.close();
   }
}

Example 6: palindrome number in java

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Palindrome
{
  public static void main(String args[])
  {
    int num,temp,reverse=0;
    Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in);
    num=in.nextInt();
    temp=num;
    //code to reverse the number
    while(temp!=0)
    {
      int d=temp%10; //extracts digit at the end
      reverse=reverse*10+d;
      temp/=10; //removes the digit at the end
    }
    // 'reverse' has the reverse version of the actual input, so we check
    if(reverse==num)
    {
      System.out.println("Number is palindrome");
    }
    else
    {
      System.out.println("Number is not palindrome");
    }
  }
}
