palindrome, C++ (gcc)

palindrome

//g++  7.4.0

//write a function that tests whether an array is palindrome or not; an array is palindrome when its reverse looks similar to the original one;
//the function takes an integer array and an integer as parameters and returns an integer;

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int n=7;

int isPalindrome(int [], int );
int isPalindrome(int a[], int n){
 int count=0;
int i;
//in palindrome, elements of the original array and those of reverse array are same(i.e. "121","ADA" etc); so a[0] is same as a[n-1] and a[n-1] is same as a[0];using this idea,   frequency of match is used to conclude whether an array is palindrome or not; starting from i=0,1,2,...n-1 , there will be exactly n(size of array) matches in case of a palindrome; any short of n matches leads to conclude that the array does not form a palindrome ;
//here count is used to trace the match 
for (i=0;i<n;i++)
if (a[i]==a[n-i-1])
    count++;
return count;
}
int main()
{
int a[n]= {11,12,13,14,13,12,11};
int result;
result=isPalindrome(a, n);//number of total count or match is assigned to result

if(result==n)//if the total match is equal to the size of array n, then it is a palindrome 
    {cout<<"\nThe array forms a palindrome.";}
else 
    {cout<<"\nThe array does not form a  palindrome.";}

return 0;
}
