1. Write program to check whether a number is Palindrome or not.
[Hint]: A palindrome number is a number such that if we reverse it, it will
not change. For example some palindrome numbers examples are 121,
212, 12321 , 454.
After a certain point, the usage of an initial block statement becomes invalid.
What will be output by the above code segment ?

It then prompts the user to guess the number. If the user guesses the number, print out a congratulatory message and exit. Otherwise, indicate whether the guess was low or high and ask the user to try again. Hint: Use the rand() function.arrow_forwardThree numbersa. Write a program that reads three numbers and prints “all the same” if they are allthe same, “all different” if they are all different, and “neither” otherwise.b. Write a program that reads three numbers and prints “increasing” if they are inincreasing order, “decreasing” if they are in decreasing order, and “neither”otherwise. Here, “increasing” means “strictly increasing”, with each value largerthan its predecessor. The sequence 3 4 4 would not be considered increasing.c. Repeat part b. but before reading the numbers, ask the user whetherincreasing/decreasing should be “strict” or “lenient”. In lenient mode, thesequence 3 4 4 is increasing and the sequence 4 4 4 is both increasing anddecreasingarrow_forward
