Is 29 a palindrome?

No, it is not. A palindrome is a word that reads the same backward as forward. For example, Mom is a palindrome because if you read it either way (Front or back) it is "Mom". Another example can be "Nurses Run". Wen you read this word backwards also, it reads "Nurses Run" (though there are spaces, which doesn't rally matter). In this example, the palindrome is not a word, it is a phrase. Thus a palindrome can be a word, phrase or a sequence. But what is important is it must read the same backward as forward. But 29 is 92 backward. and, in words it is "Twenty-Nine" forward whereas it is "Eninytnewt" backward. Thus, it is not a palindrome.
