I'd liek to try my simple C++:

bool isPalen(const string & s)
{
   int len = s.length();
   if(len <= 0)  // we can also add more string checking here
   {
       cerr << "empty input" << endl;
       return false;
   }
   for(int i = 0; i < len / 2; ++i)
   {
       cout << s[i] << endl;  // for debugging
       if(s[i] != s[len - i - 1])
            return false;
   }
   return true;
}

I'm a new graduate and I wish some engineer in Microsoft liked to interview me.
