is palindrom

To check if a word is a palindrome in C++, you can compare the characters of the word by converting it into a character array. Here is an example code that demonstrates this:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>

bool isPalindrome(const char* word) {
    int length = strlen(word);
    for (int i = 0; i < length / 2; i++) {
        if (word[i] != word[length - i - 1]) {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}

int main() {
    const char* word = "radar";
    if (isPalindrome(word)) {
        std::cout << "The word is a palindrome." << std::endl;
    } else {
        std::cout << "The word is not a palindrome." << std::endl;
    }
    return 0;
}

Explanation: 1. The isPalindrome function takes a const char* parameter, which represents the word to be checked. 2. The strlen function from the <cstring> header is used to determine the length of the word. 3. The for loop iterates over the first half of the word. 4. Inside the loop, the characters at corresponding positions from the beginning and end of the word are compared. If they are not equal, the function returns false. 5. If the loop completes without finding any unequal characters, the function returns true, indicating that the word is a palindrome. 6. In the main function, a word ("radar" in this example) is passed to the isPalindrome function, and the result is printed accordingly.

Please note that this code assumes that the word contains only lowercase letters. If you want to handle uppercase letters or other characters, you can modify the code accordingly.
