simple little challenge taken basically from freecodecamp.org and created a simple project around it

simple palindrome challenge

please write complete the script given in ./src/palindrome.js so that it returns true if the word is a plindrome and false if it is not

the cases described below are tested in the palindrome.spec.js which can be run by npm test and should

Definition of a palindrome

any sequence of numbers or letters that contain the same letters or numbers read forward or reverse is considered a palindrome. Case of the letters do not matter

e.g.

• abccba is a palindrome and palindrome('abccba') should return true
• Racecar is a palindrome and palindrome('Racecar') should return true
• 1221 is a plaindrome and palindrome('1221') should return true
• 1234 is not a plaindrome and palindrome('1234') should return false
• Whatever is not a plaindrome and palindrome('1234') should return false

a string is even considered a palindrome, even if spaces or any non-word characters are injected

• Abc Cba is a palindrome
• #!Race Car? is a palindrome
• 1.221 is a palindrome
• F#cking Gnikcf!!! is a palindrome
• #qwe!!! is not a palindrome
