java program to check string is palindrome or not 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: java program to find plaindrome

public class Palindrome {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        int num = 121, reversedInteger = 0, remainder, originalInteger;

        originalInteger = num;

        // reversed integer is stored in variable 
        while( num != 0 )
        {
            remainder = num % 10;
            reversedInteger = reversedInteger * 10 + remainder;
            num  /= 10;
        }

        // palindrome if orignalInteger and reversedInteger are equal
        if (originalInteger == reversedInteger)
            System.out.println(originalInteger + " is a palindrome.");
        else
            System.out.println(originalInteger + " is not a palindrome.");
    }
}
