Program to check the number is Palindrome or not

Difficulty Level : Basic
Last Updated : 14 Aug, 2021

Given an integer N, write a program that returns true if the given number is a palindrome, else return false.
Examples:

Input: N = 2002 
Output: true

Input: N = 1234
Output: false

Approach:
A simple method for this problem is to first reverse digits of n, then compare the reverse of n with n. If both are same, then return true, else false.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C program to check whether a number
// is Palindrome or not.
 
#include <stdio.h>
 
/* Iterative function to reverse digits of num*/
int reverseDigits(int num)
{
    int rev_num = 0;
    while (num > 0) {
        rev_num = rev_num * 10 + num % 10;
        num = num / 10;
    }
    return rev_num;
}
 
/* Function to check if n is Palindrome*/
int isPalindrome(int n)
{
 
    // get the reverse of n
    int rev_n = reverseDigits(n);
 
    // Check if rev_n and n are same or not.
    if (rev_n == n)
        return 1;
    else
        return 0;
}
 
/*Driver program to test reversDigits*/
int main()
{
    int n = 4562;
    printf("Is %d a Palindrome number? -> %s\n", n,
           isPalindrome(n) == 1 ? "true" : "false");
 
    n = 2002;
    printf("Is %d a Palindrome number? -> %s\n", n,
           isPalindrome(n) == 1 ? "true" : "false");
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java program to check whether a number
// is Palindrome or not.
 
class GFG
{
    /* Iterative function to reverse digits of num*/
    static int reverseDigits(int num)
    {
        int rev_num = 0;
        while (num > 0) {
            rev_num = rev_num * 10 + num % 10;
            num = num / 10;
        }
        return rev_num;
    }
     
    /* Function to check if n is Palindrome*/
    static int isPalindrome(int n)
    {
     
        // get the reverse of n
        int rev_n = reverseDigits(n);
     
        // Check if rev_n and n are same or not.
        if (rev_n == n)
            return 1;
        else
            return 0;
    }
     
    /*Driver program to test reversDigits*/
    public static void  main(String []args)
    {
        int n = 4562;
        System.out.println("Is" + n + "a Palindrome number? -> " +
            (isPalindrome(n) == 1 ? "true" : "false"));
     
        n = 2002;
         
        System.out.println("Is" + n + "a Palindrome number? -> " +
            (isPalindrome(n) == 1 ? "true" : "false"));
 
    }
