This is my self-study page for the book, "Introduction to Algorithm", or commonly known as CLRS. This is also my diary page of how I struggle and grow in the programming world. I hope this blog can help amateurs or professionals, to improve their skills in programming, learning and living. As of Sep 12, 2011, I finished the "exercise read" of Chapter 2 (20110518) and 3 (20110608) and half of Chapter 4.

How to use a stack to test a palindrome?
Come to think of it, it's actually very simple. You just need to push the first half of the string into the stack and for the second half, if the element is the same as the top of the stack, you can pop it out from the stack. If the stack is empty, this means you have a palindrome. If there is any one element which you can't pop, then we are not looking at a palindrome.
