using namespace std;


int main(){
char x;
char*str=new char[100];
int k=0,i;
printf("Enter a message: ");
while(x!='\n')
{
scanf("%c",&x);
if(((x>='a')&&(x<='z'))||
((x>='A')&&(x<='Z')))
{
str[k]=x;
if(((x>='A')&&(x<='Z')))
str[k]-='A'-'a';
k++;
}
}
str[k]='\0';
int good=1;
for(i=0;i<strlen(str)/2;i++)
if(str[i]!=str[strlen(str)-i-1])
{
good=0;
break;
}
if(good)
printf("The entered message is a palindrome.");
else
printf("The entered message is not a palindrome.");

return 0;
