Given an integer ‘x’, write a C function that returns true if binary representation of x is palindrome else return false.
For example a numbers with binary representation as 10..01 is palindrome and number with binary representation as 10..00 is not palindrome.
The idea is similar to checking a string is palindrome or not. We start from leftmost and rightmost bits and compare bits one by one. If we find a mismatch, then return false.
Method#1: We follow the following logic to check binary of number is Palindrome or not:
- Find number of bits in x using sizeof() operator.
- Initialize left and right positions as 1 and n respectively.
- Do following while left ‘l’ is smaller than right ‘r’.
- If bit at position ‘l’ is not same as bit at position ‘r’, then return false.
- Increment ‘l’ and decrement ‘r’, i.e., do l++ and r–-.
- If we reach here, it means we didn’t find a mismatching bit.
- To find the bit at a given position, we can use an idea similar to this post. The expression “x & (1 << (k-1))” gives us non-zero value if bit at k’th position from right is set and gives a zero value if if k’th bit is not set.
Following is the implementation of the above algorithm
C++
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
bool isKthBitSet(unsigned int x, unsigned int k)
{
return (x & (1 << (k - 1))) ? true : false ;
}
bool isPalindrome(unsigned int x)
{
int l = 1;
int r = sizeof (unsigned int ) * 8;
while (l < r)
{
if (isKthBitSet(x, l) != isKthBitSet(x, r))
return false ;
l++; r--;
}
return true ;
}
int main()
{
unsigned int x = 1 << 15 + 1 << 16;
cout << isPalindrome(x) << endl;
x = 1 << 31 + 1;
cout << isPalindrome(x) << endl;
return 0;

Method#2: Using reverse() function:
- When user inputs an integer, it is passed to method which will evaluate the result.
- Actual logic inside the method focuses on following:
- It first convert the integer to binary form of integer in string format.
- It reverse the string using reverse method.
- It is palindrome if both the string is equal else not.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
string bin(unsigned n)
{ string ans;
while (n > 0){
ans = (to_string(n&1)) + ans;
n >>= 1;
}
return ans;
}
bool checkPalindrome( unsigned int n){
string s1 = bin(n);
string s2 = s1;
reverse(s2.begin(), s2.end());
return s1 == s2;
}
int main() {
unsigned int x = 1 << 15 + 1 << 16;
cout << checkPalindrome(x) << endl;
x = 10;
cout << checkPalindrome(x) << endl;
return 0;

Method 3: Using builtin method bitset<>
- Convert the given number into its binary form.
- Check if it’s palindrome or not.

C++
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int isPalindrome( int N)
{
string s = bitset<32>(N).to_string();
s = s.substr(s.find( '1' ));
int i = 0, j = s.size() - 1;
while (i < j) {
if (s[i] != s[j])
return false ;
i++;
j--;
}
return true ;
}

int x = 16;
cout << isPalindrome(x) << endl;
x = 17;
cout << isPalindrome(x) << endl;
return 0;
