Every day, the ProgrammableWeb team is busy, updating its three primary directories for APIs, clients (language-specific libraries or SDKs for consuming or providing APIs), and source code samples.
Hi guys so I was playing with some code which would determine the whether a string is a palindrome or not. Its been a mixed bag of results with some palindromes being detected while others aren't. I do apologize to the lack of polish of my comments but I hope that someone might be able to see where the error is and give me good feedback. I think the error is in the set of code that removes the special characters from the string.
As a reference, I am using this webiste: http://www.palindromelist.net/ as the source for the palindrome strings. However the really long ones have resulted in errors.
package palindrome;
