- Make a function is_palindrome that takes a string as an argument that returns True if the given string is a palindrome, and False otherwise. A string is a palindrome if it is the same if you reverse it. For example: "racecar" "kаyak" "otto" "redivider" "wontloversrevoltnow"arrow_forward// Write a function that takes 1 argument, a string. // It returns true if the string is a palindrome (the same forwards and backwards). // It returns false if the string is not a palindrome. const isPalindrome = (string) => { // your code here... // Examples isPalindrome("cat") // returns false //isPalindrome("level") // returns true }arrow_forwardWrite a function that searches for a particular character in a string using the following header: void search(string& s, char& key) Write a test program that prompts the user to enter the string and a character and displays if the character is found.arrow_forward
- 4. What is the value returned by function compareTo() if the invoking string is less than the string compared? a) zero b) value less than zero c) value greater than zero d) none of the mentionedarrow_forwardIn C language, Write a function that gets a string containing a positive integer. The function subtracts 1 fromthat integer and puts the obtained value in the string. void str_subtract_one(char* num); For example:- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“1997”, then after return str will be “1996”.- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“12345678987650”, then after return str will be “12345678987649”.- if before we call str_subtract_one(str) we have str==“100”, then after return str will be “99”. 1. You may assume that the input is always legal, i.e., the string is a positive integer correctly formatted.2. Note that the numbers may be larger than the maximum of int or long. That is, you should not try to convert string to intarrow_forward4. Complete the function show_upper. This function takes one parameter - a string (s). It should return a string made up of all the upper-case characters in s. For example, if s is “aBdDEfgHijK” then show_upper should return “BDEHK”. It should return the upper-case string - not print it. Do not change anything outside show_upper.arrow_forward
- C++ code please Write a program that uses the function isPalindrome . Test your program on the following strings: madam, abba, 22, 67876, 444244, trymeuemyrt Modify the function isPalindrome so that when determining whether a string is a palindrome, cases are ignored, that is, uppercase and lowercase letters are considered the same. Your program should print a message indicating if a string is a palindrome: madam is a palindrome Use expressions: .+*isPalindrome\(\"Madam\"\).+* .+*isPalindrome\(\"abBa\"\).+* .+*isPalindrome\(\"22\"\).+* .+*isPalindrome\(\"67876\"\).+* .+*isPalindrome\(\"444244\"\).+* .+*isPalindrome\(\"trYmeuemyRT\"\).+* in the code.arrow_forwardJS Write a function named "tweets" that takes a string as a parameter. If a message can hold at most 280 characters, calculate the smallest number of messages needed to hold all of the text in the input. The function should return the number it calculated.arrow_forwardUsing C++ write this code Write a function called isValidNote that accepts a string and returns true if that string is a valid note expressed in SPN and false otherwise. See the explanation above for clarity on what is and is not considered valid SPN. Function Specifications: Name: isValidNote() Parameters (Your function should accept these parameters IN THIS ORDER): note (string): The string to be checked Return Value: True or false (bool) The function should return true if the string is a valid note in SPN and false otherwise. The function should not print anything. The function should be case-sensitive, e.g. B0 is valid SPN but b0 is not. Hint: Any note expressed in valid SPN will be exactly 2 characters long. --- Examples --- Sample function call Expected return value isValidNote("y") False isValidNote("D4") True isValidNote("d4") False isValidNote("E72") False isValidNote("I love coding") False Your file should be named isValidNote.cpp and should also…arrow_forward
- 5. A prime number is a number that is only evenly divisible by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can only be evenly divided by 1 and 5. The number 6, how- ever, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6. Write a Boolean function named is_prime which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false otherwise. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to enter a number then displays a message indicating whether the number is prime. 6. In another program, use the function you wrote in question 5 to print the prime numbers between 1 and 100 using for loop.arrow_forwardWrite a function that returns the common characters of two strings using the following header: string commonChars(const string& s1, const string& s2) Write a test program that prompts the user to enter two strings and display their common characters. Here are some sample runs:arrow_forwardWrite the following function to check whether a string is a palindrome assuming letters are case-insensitive: bool isPalindrome(const string& s) Write a test program that reads a string and displays whether it is a palindrome.arrow_forward
