Test if a string is a palindrome code example

Example 1: Write a function that tests whether a string is a palindrome

def palindrome_check(string):
    string = list(string)
    tmp = []
    #remove any spaces
    for x in range(0, len(string)):
        if(string[x] != " "):
            tmp.append(string[x].lower())
    
            
    #now reverse the string
    array1 = []
    i = 0
    j = len(tmp)-1

    while(i < len(tmp)):
        array1.append(tmp[j])
        i += 1
        j -= 1

    #check if array1 is equal to the string
    counter = 0
    for x in range(0, len(tmp)):
        if(tmp[x] == array1[x]):
            counter += 1

    #if the counter is equal to the length of the string then the word
    #is the same
    if(counter == len(tmp)):
        return True
    
    return False

Example 2: check palindrome

bool isPlaindrome(string s)
	{
	   int i=0;
	   int j=s.length()-1;
	   while(i<j)
	   {
	       if(s[i]==s[j])
	       {i++;
	   j--;}
	   else break;
	   }
	   if (i==j || i>j) return 1;
	   else return 0;
	}
