9. Palindrome Number

Easy


Given an integer x, return true if x is palindrome integer.

An integer is a palindrome when it reads the same backward as forward.

  • For example, 121 is a palindrome while 123 is not.

 

Example 1:

Input: x = 121
Output: true
Explanation: 121 reads as 121 from left to right and from right to left.

Example 2:

Input: x = -121
Output: false
Explanation: From left to right, it reads -121. From right to left, it becomes 121-. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

Example 3:

Input: x = 10
Output: false
Explanation: Reads 01 from right to left. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

 

Constraints:

  • -231 <= x <= 231 - 1

 

Follow up: Could you solve it without converting the integer to a string?




 class Solution:
    def isPalindrome(self, x: int) -> bool:
        s = str(x)
        return s == s[::-1]

Random Note


From python 3.7 dict guarantees that order will be kept as they inserted, and popitem will use LIFO order but we need FIFO type system. so we need OrderedDict which have popIten(last = T/F) for this req. One thing, next(iter(dict)) will return the first key of the dict
