Program 4
Aim: write a program to check whether given number is
palindrome or not .

Linux code:
num=545
s=0
rev=""
temp=$num
while[ $num -gt 0 ]
do
s=$(( $num % 10 ))
num=$(( $num / 10 ))
rev=$( echo${rev}${s} )
done
if[ $temp -eq$rev ];
then
echo"Number is palindrome"
else
echo"Number is NOT palindrome"
fi

i=2
while [ $i -ge $(($a/2)) ]
do
if [ $(($i % 2)) == 0 ]
then
flag=1;
break
fi
done
if [ $flag == 1 ]
then
echo "$a is not a prime"
else
echo "$a is a Prime"
fi
