Check for Palindrome in R

A palindrome is a word or any value that is being read in the same way from right to left as in left to right. For example, 12321, 514212415, ABCDEDCBA, etc. To check palindrome in R, we can create a function using stri_reverse function of stringi package as shown in the below examples.

Example1

library(stringi)
palindrome<−function(x) stri_reverse(x)==x
x1<−"oyo"
palindrome(x1)

Output

[1] TRUE

Example2

 Live Demo

x2<−sample(c("india","eye","ITI"),50,replace=TRUE)
x2

Output

[1] "india" "india" "ITI" "ITI" "ITI" "ITI" "ITI" "india" "india"
[10] "eye" "eye" "ITI" "india" "eye" "eye" "eye" "eye" "ITI"
[19] "eye" "ITI" "eye" "ITI" "ITI" "ITI" "ITI" "eye" "eye"
[28] "ITI" "eye" "eye" "ITI" "eye" "ITI" "india" "eye" "eye"
[37] "eye" "eye" "eye" "ITI" "eye" "india" "india" "ITI" "eye"
[46] "india" "eye" "ITI" "india" "eye"

palindrome(x2)

Output

[1] FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE TRUE [13] FALSE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE [25] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE TRUE [37] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE TRUE [49] FALSE TRUE
