Problem

As part of automated validation for ASM Technologies test inputs, determine whether a given string is a palindrome. A palindrome reads the same from left to right and right to left.

Implement a function that compares characters exactly. Matching is case-sensitive, and spaces, punctuation, and other characters must be treated as part of the string.

Formal Specification

Given a string text, return a Boolean value:

Return True if text is a palindrome.
Return False otherwise.

Constraints

0 <= len(text) <= 10^5
text contains printable ASCII characters
Comparison is case-sensitive
Spaces and punctuation are treated as ordinary characters

Function Signature
