Given two years Y1 and Y2 where 103 ≤ Y1 ≤ Y2 ≤ 106, the task is to find and print all the dates which are palindromes between the given years.
Examples: 
 

Input: Y1 = 2001, Y2 = 2005 
Output: 
10022001 
20022002
Input: Y1 = 5000, Y2 = 5010 
Output: 
10055001 
20055002 
30055003 
01055010 
 

Approach: Since the first four digits (i.e. the day and the month) have to be the reverse of the last four digits (the year) in order for the date to be a palindrome. So, every year will have at most one palindrome date. In order to find the dates, for every year reverse the year number and check whether the date formed is valid or not. If it is valid then print it.
Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
 

C++




// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
const int MAX_VALID_YR = 9999;
const int MIN_VALID_YR = 1800;
 
// Returns true if
// given year is valid
bool isLeap(int year)
{
    // Return true if year
    // is a multiple of 4 and
    // not multiple of 100.
    // OR year is multiple of 400.
    return (((year % 4 == 0)
             && (year % 100 != 0))
            || (year % 400 == 0));
}
 
// Returns true if given
// year is valid or not.
bool isValidDate(int d, int m, int y)
{
    // If year, month and day
    // are not in given range
    if (y > MAX_VALID_YR || y < MIN_VALID_YR)
        return false;
    if (m < 1 || m > 12)
        return false;
    if (d < 1 || d > 31)
        return false;
 
    // Handle February month
    // with leap year
    if (m == 2) {
        if (isLeap(y))
            return (d <= 29);
        else
            return (d <= 28);
    }
 
    // Months of April, June,
    // Sept and Nov must have
    // number of days less than
    // or equal to 30.
    if (m == 4 || m == 6 || m == 9 || m == 11)
        return (d <= 30);
 
    return true;
}
 
// Function to print the palindrome
// dates between the given years
void printPalindromeDates(int y1, int y2)
{
 
    // For every year
    for (int year = y1; year <= y2; year++) {
 
        // Current year as a string
        string str = to_string(year);
 
        // To store the reverse of year
        string rev = str;
        reverse(rev.begin(), rev.end());
 
        // Get the day and the month
        int day = stoi(rev.substr(0, 2));
        int month = stoi(rev.substr(2, 2));
 
        // If the current palindrome date is valid
        if (isValidDate(day, month, year)) {
            cout << rev << str << endl;
        }
    }
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int y1 = 2001, y2 = 2005;
 
    printPalindromeDates(y1, y2);
 
    return 0;
}
