page-title: Post-lab 17 page-subtitle: Traversal and Slicing
A palindrome is text that is the same forward and backward. In this activity you will demonstrate your knowledge of string traversal by writing a function that determines if a word is a palindrome.
Details
Create a function called is_palindrome(text) in a file
called palindrome.py. The function should
return True if the input text is a palindrome
and False otherwise.
Make sure your code follows the course's code conventions.
Sample Test Cases
| Function Parameters | Expected Output |
|---|---|
| 'radar' | True |
| 'racecar' | True |
| 'race car' | False |
| 'Hannah' | False |
Submission
Submit your program as a .py file on the course Inquire page before class on Friday October 10th.
