9. Palindrome Number

Easy

Given an integer x, return true if x is palindrome integer.

An integer is a palindrome when it reads the same backward as forward. For example, 121 is palindrome while 123 is not.

Example 1:

Input: x = 121

Output: true

Example 2:

Input: x = -121

Output: false

Explanation: From left to right, it reads -121. From right to left, it becomes 121-. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

Example 3:

Input: x = 10

Output: false

Explanation: Reads 01 from right to left. Therefore it is not a palindrome.

Example 4:

Input: x = -101

Output: false

Constraints:

Follow up: Could you solve it without converting the integer to a string?

Solution

# @param {Integer} x
# @return {Boolean}
def is_palindrome(x)
  return false if x < 0

  rev = 0
  local_x = x

  while local_x > 0
    rev *= 10
    rev += local_x % 10
    local_x /= 10
  end

  rev == x
end
