¿Cómo verificar si una cadena dada es un palíndromo, en Python?
"""
This implementation checks whether a given
string is a palindrome. A string is
considered to be a palindrome if it reads the
same forward and backward. For example, "kayak"
is a palindrome, while, "door" is not.
Let n be the length of the string
Time complexity: O(n),
Space complexity: O(1)
"""
def isPalindrome(string):
# Maintain left and right pointers
leftIdx = 0
rightIdx = len(string)-1
while leftIdx < rightIdx:
# If chars on either end don't match
# string cannot be a palindrome
if string[leftIdx] != string[rightIdx]:
return False
# Otherwise, proceed to next chars
leftIdx += 1
rightIdx -= 1
return True
print(isPalindrome("kayak")) # True
print(isPalindrome("door")) # False
