C Program to Check Whether a Number is Palindrome or not using Bitwise Operator

This is a C Program to check whether the given number is palindrome or not using bitwise operator.

This C Program Checks whether the given Number is Palindrome or not using Bitwise Operator.

Take input from the user and performs bitwise operations as shown in the program below.

Here is source code of the C Program to Check whether the given Number is Palindrome or not using Bitwise Operator. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

}

In this C program, we are reading the value of ‘string using word character array variable. A palindrome is a word, phrase or sentence that reads the same backward or forward.

Check the values of a given string and reverse string are equal. If else condition statement is used inside for loop if the condition is true then assign the value of ‘flag’ variable as 1. Otherwise, if the condition is false then execute the else statement. Assign the value of ‘flag’ variable as 0 and exit the loop.

If else condition statement is used to check the value of ‘flag’ variable is equal to1. If the condition is true then execute the statement and print the string is palindrome. Otherwise, if the condition is false then execute the else statement and print as not a palindrome.

 
$ cc bits21.c
$ a.out
Enter a number(max 255)153
The number 153 in binary is:10011001
NUMBER IS PALINDROME
 
$ a.out
Enter a number(max 255)24
The number 24 in binary is:00011000
NUMBER IS PALINDROME
