Palindrome, is a word or numbers that are the same forward as it is backwards.
A palindrome is a word, phrase, number, or other sequence of symbols or elements, whose meaning may be interpreted the same way in either forward or reverse direction. Famous examples include “Amore, Roma”, “A man, a plan, a canal: Panama” and “No ‘x’ in ‘Nixon’”. Bob is another one.
