# Challenge #1: String Slicing

# Assign sub_lyric by slicing rhyme_lyric from start_index to end_index which are given as inputs.
    # Sample output with inputs: 4 7
    # cow

# start_index = int(input('Start: '))
# end_index = int(input('End: '))
# rhyme_lyric = 'The cow jumped over the moon.'
# sub_lyric = rhyme_lyric[start_index:end_index]
# print(sub_lyric)

# Challenge #2: Format Temperature Output

# Print air_temperature with 1 decimal point followed by C.
    # Sample output with input: 36.4158102
    # 36.4C

# air_temperature = float(input('Type in temperature: '))

# print('%.1fC'% air_temperature)

# Challege #3: Find Abbreviations

# Complete the if-else statement to print 'LOL means laughing out loud' if user_tweet contains 'LOL'.
    # Sample output with input: 'I was LOL during the whole movie!'
    # LOL means laughing out loud.

# user_tweet = input()

# if not 'LOL' in user_tweet:
#     print('No abbreviation.')
# else:
#     print('LOL means laughing out loud.')

# Challenge #4: Replace Abbreviations

# Assign decoded_tweet with user_tweet, replacing any occurrence of 'TTYL' with 'talk to you later'.
    # Sample output with input: 'Gotta go. I will TTYL.'

# user_tweet = input()

# decoded_tweet = user_tweet.replace('TTYL', 'talk to you later' )
# print(decoded_tweet)

# Challenge 5: Extract Area Code

# Assign number_segments with phone_number split by the hyphens.
    # Sample output with input: '977-555-3221'
    # Area code: 977

# phone_number = input()
# number_segments = phone_number.split('-')
# area_code = number_segments[0]
# print('Area code:', area_code)

# Challenge 6: Check for integer in string

# Forms often allow a user to enter an integer. Write a program that takes in a string representing an integer as input,
# and outputs yes if every character is a digit 0-9.

# Ex: If the input is:
    # 1995
    # the output is:
        # yes
# Ex: If the input is:
    # 42,000
    # # or any string with a non-integer character, the output is:
        # no

# user_string = input()

# print(user_string.isdigit())

# Challenge 7: Name Format

# Many documents use a specific format for a person's name. Write a program whose input is: firstName middleName lastName,
# and whose output is: lastName, firstName middleInitial.

# Ex: If the input is:
    # Pat Silly Doe
    # the output is:
        # Doe, Pat S.

# If the input has the form firstName lastName, the output is lastName, firstName.

# Ex: If the input is:
    # Julia Clark
    # the output is:
        # Clark, Julia

# name = input('Enter your name First name then Last name:\n')
# tokens = name.split(" ")
# print(tokens)

# if len(tokens) == 3:
#     print('%s, %s %s.'% (tokens[2], tokens[0], tokens[1][0]))
    
# if len(tokens) == 2:    
#     print('%s, %s'% (tokens[1], tokens[0]))

# Challenge 8: Palindrome

# A palindrome is a word or a phrase that is the same when read both forward and backward.
# Examples are: "bob," "sees," or "never odd or even" (ignoring spaces).
# Write a program whose input is a word or phrase, and that outputs whether the input is a palindrome.

# Ex: If the input is:
#     bob
#     the output is:
#         bob is a palindrome
# Ex: If the input is:
#     bobby
#     the output is:
#         bobby is not a palindrome
# Hint: Start by removing spaces. Then check if a string is equivalent to it's reverse.

user_input = input("Type a word and I will tell you if it is a palindrome: ")
txt = user_input
txt = txt.lower().replace(" ", "")
reverse = txt[::-1]
if txt == reverse:
    print(user_input, "is a palindrome")
else:
    print(user_input, "is not a palindrome")
