Explanation:

Read a string from user and assign it to variable "s".Call the method isPalindrome() with parameter "s".In this function find the length of the string.Then compare first  character with last and second with second last and so on.If the string is palindrome then it will return 1 else it will return 0.

Output:

Enter a string:rotor                                                                                                      

Given String is a palindrome
