A palindrome is a word or phrase that is the same reversed, as it is originally:
mom
dad
race car
If you reverse each of these (and exclude spaces) then they will spell the same word. In this palindrome java program, we will use a for loop to get each character from the word, and then use another for loop to compare each reversed character to the original to determine if the String is indeed a palindrome.
This palindrome java code can be tricky at first... But SURELY you'll get it :) If you followed along, congrats! You learned-by-doing!
I hope you enjoyed this palindrome program in java tutorial! I like to have a nice mix of tutorials and actual projects for you all :)

Bro honestly you are my go to now you explain things at my level of understanding thanks!

[@kangdysalltag]

Hey Alex, I rarely leave comments but I have to say your tutorials are the easiest and coolest way to learn Java! Thank you so much for making these videos. It really helps me a lot to actually gain more interest in programming and not to give up! I love how you make hard things look simple and clear and that really motivates me to keep on going! I also agree on all the comments below that you are amazing! Thanks again!

that's great to hear, thank you! I'm happy to help

[@muhammadnusrum6351]

So well explained, helped me a lot understanding each statement!

[@sospylon5848]

Good video, maybe in the future you could make a video on program that generates every permutation of an array, i had problems with is lately so i would love to see you explaining it.

[@peppermintdior]

YOur videos are great really helping me through college ♥ thanks ALEX

[@edwardmallia22]

Hey Alex I've been watching your vids for a while and I love them. I have a computing project coming up soon that's really important and was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how to use the pop up window and add labels, buttons, lists and stuff like that. Similar to the one of the arrow key detection just with how to use all the different things you can add. Keep up the brilliant work.

[@soniafaizabenchebana3128]

you are the best alex please keep up the great work !

I did this similarly but with the stack and queue data structure

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

You're AMAZING!!!

[@kil9730]

Wth i understood this so quick man I'm starting from the basics now

[@thatChillLife2037]

I just started learning Java a few months ago and I LOVE your tutorials! They explain things so well and you're right, some people learn better by seeing! I just spent 30 min working with how to create a palindrome method online--I took a break and said, let's give videos a try. SO. MUCH. BETTER! Thanks 🙂

[@trodg]

Hows your coding coming along?

[@unofficialbeastx929]

Thats you really helped!

good video as always.. thanks :)

[@negativecreep9971]

Is it common to see a palindrome problem for the first time, and have no idea how to create a solution?

[@zububabu8249]

Yes if u don't know about 2 pointers

[@Tuxedo-Twins]

When you have the reverse string can’t we just do equals to check the original and reverse to make the decision on if palindrome true or not

[@hiltonvusi7483]

Thank you Alex🙏

[@user-ki9nj8mr1k]

nice and different starategy in teaching and also upload calcualtionpart

[@crazierhiphopbeatzbydegriz5733]

Great!!! please do also, Data Structures tutorials.

[@mouneibintk9595]

great explanation

[@scottliu6042]

Can also use original.trim() as well instead of replace, right?

[@CssSpyxed]

I've been learning programming since 2019 and gave up in 2020. Now I'm back and found this channel a while ago, it goes so much better and faster since that. Thank you, Alex, you're amazing!

at the boolean part, why its says "Unreachable code" how do i fix that?

[@philipgabrielc.bornea9221]

Your awesome bro😉

[@georgea7850]

Pseudo code : If user inputs the word and you store in word[] string array.. after conditioning the strlen couldn’t you just read from the End instead of decrement in the loop function?

Hey you saved me some tears

[@sarthoknextt5150]

This is java interview question that i have faced recently..

[@takoyaki-sama6337]

how about when we gotta return true if its a palin. and false if not as a boolean type?

[@aalokkumar9732]

do this question using single for loop

[@archiax1007]

My question is why you get a single line saying it's a palindrome or not, but when I use the exact same code it's give me a new line saying it is or isn't when it tests each character? How did I get these loop results to give me the one final line and not multiple lines each time it runs the loop?

[@dirisendiri7425]

can this program be made in recursion form?

[@heksqer1022]

Great video , but couldn't we just compare the strings instead of comparing the characters one by one in a loop ? Say if(original.equals(reverse)){ System.out.println("PALINDROME");}

[@alexlorenlee]

Tiltproof Meepo yes you could do that too :)

[@rupeshkamble3331]

What is space and time complexity of this?

[@keeprunning5457]

very good excellent!

[@jesussister595]

if(reverse.equals(original)) palindrome = true ; why we dont do it like that ? is there something wrong on this?

[@a.hao97]

Yes i used that, it reduced the complexity of the code and it works fine. I tried to use if ( reverse == original) instead and kept getting error messages until i explored using equals..

[@shreyak6100]

Lets go!!

[@coesmetic]

Why does it print out not a palindrome when i type in 'nurses run' without the 's'?

[@mahamamjad1086]

I am not able to understand why there is a minus 1 there

[@Deepak_mannai]

Nice teach

[@OptionsOwnsU]

Why iterate again to compare them and not use equals?

[@ScylenoMido]

Saved me 🙏

[@jharding32]

This is only comparing the first and last character. This program would call "YESTERDAY" a palindrome even though it is not. Also, I do not understand why a space made any difference. Can you explain that? The first and last character were still equal.

[@tamannaniger7204]

Thanks

[@kvelez]

Cool program.

[@Ryan-le2im]

Thanks x 100

[@sefacorleone8276]

i ask myself, why you dont just use equals on Strings at the end , beginning with boolean palindrom ? i mean: originalString.equals(reversedString) == palindrom

[@Na-cc9dx]

it is working, but what about capitalization? how can ignore it?

[@sefacorleone8276]

@@Na-cc9dx use .toLowerCase() method on String. Or toUpperCase();

[@sefacorleone8276]

@@Na-cc9dx The equalsIgnoreCase() method compares two strings, ignoring lower case and upper case differences. This method returns true if the strings are equal, and false if not. Tip: Use the compareToIgnoreCase() method to compare two strings lexicographically, ignoring case differences. With this its easier and you do not need to loop again. Better for Time and Space complexity.

[@Reptilectrik27]

I just dont understand why he has to subsract 1 from "int i = original.length()". Why start at 2 instead of 3?

[@-hir0yat0-25]

Indexing starts at 0 (position 1 = 0, position 2 = 1, position 3 = 2, etc.). So in his example, since there are 3 characters, index 3 doesnt exist, but original.lenght() would return 3 (since there are 3 characters). If he wants to start at the end, index 2 (position 3), he would have to -1 from the length of the original string.

[@poopass5308]

savior

[@germescraft]

thx

[@saikiranvaishnav7546]

Or,instead of another for loop,just compare the original and reverse with if statements.!

[@alexsepelenco9902]

It's not fool proof because of "A Man, a Plan, a Canal - Panama" strings that are not alphabets

[@sabikaali5527]

if (reverse==original){palindrome = true;} wouldn't this be simpler to do, instead of writing another loop?

[@timothybritcliffe]

if(original.equals(reverse)){ System.out.println("Is a palindrome!"); } else { System.out.println("Not a palindrome."); That's how you would properly do it. But yes I see what you are getting at

[@yasseralkindi7350]

I did it this way, a few lines of code less, works just fine... public class Palindrome { public static boolean checkPalindrome(String str){ String original = str; String reversed="";//to store reversed str into for (int i= str.length()-1; i>=0; i--) { //starting at the end (length), reversed +=original.charAt(i);//adding char at i (going backwards) if (reversed.equals(original)) { } } return true; } public static void main(String[] args) { String str = "nurses run"; if(checkPalindrome(str)) System.out.println("The string is a palindrome!"); else System.out.println("The string is not a palindrome!"); }}

[@vasilizaitsev7246]

Great

[@paia6447]

System.out.println(palindrome ? "Palindrome" : "Not a Palindrome");

[@paia6447]

It's better to use this than if else statement

[@zane8805]

bro when you did String reverse = ""; and then reverse += i cringed you shouldve used StringBuffer reverse = new StringBuffer(); and then reverse.append("");

[@heksqer1022]

Why is that better than what's shown in the video ?

[@zane8805]

[@TheNEOWOW]

int i = word.length() - 1; why -1 here ? index started on 0.. i know but why -1 ?

[@samarthvs3338]

my solution without seeing the video- import java.util.Scanner; class palindrome { static String reverse(String s) { char[] letters = new char[s.length()]; int ind = 0; for(int i = s.length() - 1; i >= 0; i--) { letters[ind] = s.charAt(i); ind++; } String reversed = ""; for(int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) { reversed = reversed + letters[i]; } return reversed; } static boolean isPalindrome(String str) { if(reverse(str).equals(str)) { return true; } else { return false; } } public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("Enter a number:"); String num = sc.nextLine(); if(isPalindrome(num)) { System.out.println(num + " is a palindrome"); } else { System.out.println(num + " is not a palindrome"); } } }

hmm u didnt have to do the boolean stuff. Cud have just done a simple if statement to check if it is palindrome. (sry if im wrong :P)

[@timothybritcliffe]

correct me if im wrong but couldnt you also do if(original.equals(reverse)){ System.out.println("Is a palindrome!"); } else { System.out.println("Not a palindrome."); to check if the word/phrase is a palindrome?
