Check Palindrome

---

Given a year, return the century it is in. The first century spans from the year 1 up to and including the year 100, the second - from the year 101 up to and including the year 200, etc.

Example

• For year = 1905, the output should be
  solution(year) = 20;
• For year = 1700, the output should bGiven the string, check if it is a palindrome.

Example

• For inputString = "aabaa", the output should be
  solution(inputString) = true;
• For inputString = "abac", the output should be
  solution(inputString) = false;
• For inputString = "a", the output should be
  solution(inputString) = true.

Input/Output

• [execution time limit] 4 seconds (py3)

• [input] string inputString

  A non-empty string consisting of lowercase characters.

  Guaranteed constraints:
  1 ≤ inputString.length ≤ 10^5^.

• [output] boolean

  true if inputString is a palindrome, false otherwise.

-e
solution(year) = 17.

Input/Output

• [execution time limit] 4 seconds (py3)

• [input] integer year

  A positive integer, designating the year.

  Guaranteed constraints:
  1 ≤ year ≤ 2005.

• [output] integer

  The number of the century the year is in.

Solution

def solution(inputString):
    return inputString == inputString[::-1]
