Day 1 Question 1
Palindromes
Input file: proba.in
Output file: proba.out
A palindrome is a sequence of characters that reads the same forwards and backwards. e.g. RADAR, MADAMIMADAM
You are to write a program which finds the longest palindrome in a given string of characters.
Input
The input file will begin with a line containing one positive integer n, the number of strings to be tested, followed by n lines each containing one string of characters of up to 25,000 characters in length and terminated with a blank. The input strings will contain upper case letters only.
Output
Your program should output a pair of lines for each test case with the palindrome on the first line and the length of the palindrome on the second. In the event of a tie for longest, any of the palindromes in the tie may be reported.
