the code that i only know is..

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim st As String, rst As String
st = InputBox("Enter any string")
st = UCase(st)

For i = Len(st) To 1 Step -1
rst = rst & Mid(st, i, 1)
Next i

If rst = st Then
Console.write "Palindrome"
Else
Console.Write "Not-Palindrome"
End If
End Sub

i really dont know how to construct array..
please help me with this..

i dont have any installer of VB .NET right now..
i only do some of my projects and homeworks in school.

could somebody help me with this?
i want to display the palindrome or not palindrome in a messagebox..

ang using text input box, how will i be able to accpt inputs or phrase using it?

HERES THE BROBLEM:

a program to accept a string and [b]determines
if the String is a palindrome. Define a recursive procedure
TestPalindrome that returns True if the String stored in the
array is a palindrome, but False otherwise.

The procedure should ignore spaces and punctuation in the String. [Hint: A String can be converted to a Char array using method ToCharArray. For instance, the statement:

myArray = myString.ToCharArray()

stores the contents of string variable myString in
one-dimensional Char array myArray.]

I see this problem all the time!!! just use this code:

If LCase(MyString) = LCase(StrReverse(MyString)) Then
'It is a palindrome
Else
'It is not a palindrome
End If

MyString is the string to check if it is a palindrome or not.

hope it helps

Your problem tells you to create a [b]recursive function to figure this out. Just make a new recursive function that:

sets a 'break point' to escape the recursion such as when characters left = 1 or 0,
then recursively check the first character in the array with the last character until either 1 or 0 characters are left in the array.

eg.

Check if length of end - beginning == 1 or less characters, then return true.

if first character in array == last character in array then it's still a palindrome
{
so, increase the beginning index + 1 and decreasing the ending index -1
Call the same function again with new indexes.
}
else
{
It's not a palindrome, so return false
}







hope this helps!
