Program to check if an Array is Palindrome or not

0 0 4 minutes read

Given an array, the task is to determine whether an array is a palindrome or not.
Examples:

Input: arr[] = {3, 6, 0, 6, 3}
Output: Palindrome

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
Output: Not Palindrome

Approach:

Initialise flag to unset int flag = 0.
Loop the array till size n/2
In a loop check if arr[i]! = arr[n-i-1] then set the flag = 1 and break
After the loop has ended, If the flag is set to 1 then print “Not Palindrome” else print “Palindrome”

Below is the implementation of above Approach:

C++

// C++ Program to check whether the
// Array is palindrome or not
 
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
void palindrome(int arr[], int n)
{
    // Initialise flag to zero.
    int flag = 0;
 
    // Loop till array size n/2.
    for (int i = 0; i <= n / 2 && n != 0; i++) {
 
        // Check if first and last element are different
        // Then set flag to 1.
        if (arr[i] != arr[n - i - 1]) {
            flag = 1;
            break;
        }
    }
 
    // If flag is set then print Not Palindrome
    // else print Palindrome.
    if (flag == 1)
        cout << "Not Palindrome";
    else
        cout << "Palindrome";
}
 
// Driver code.
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 2, 1 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    palindrome(arr, n);
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java Program to check whether the
// Array is palindrome or not
 
class GfG {
 
    static void palindrome(int arr[], int n)
    {
        // Initialise flag to zero.
        int flag = 0;
 
        // Loop till array size n/2.
        for (int i = 0; i <= n / 2 && n != 0; i++) {
 
            // Check if first and last element are different
            // Then set flag to 1.
            if (arr[i] != arr[n - i - 1]) {
                flag = 1;
                break;
            }
        }
 
        // If flag is set then print Not Palindrome
        // else print Palindrome.
        if (flag == 1)
            System.out.println("Not Palindrome");
        else
            System.out.println("Palindrome");
    }
 
    // Driver code.
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 2, 1 };
        int n = arr.length;
 
        palindrome(arr, n);
    }
}

    while (i <= n // 2 and n != 0):

Output:

Palindrome

Time complexity: O(n) where n is size of given array

Auxiliary space: O(1)
