EasyPython

Problem

How would you determine if a word was a palindrome programmatically?

Implement is_palindrome(word) to return True when the word reads the same forward and backward, and False otherwise. The comparison is case-sensitive and uses each character exactly as provided.

Output: a Boolean indicating whether word is a palindrome.

Constraints

0 <= len(word) <= 1000
word contains printable characters
