Dear all,
Sorry to bother you with a beginner's problem again...
I have tried to write a program that can check if a string is a palindrome. My
code is as follows:
def isPalindrome(s):
if len(s) <= 1: return True
else: return s(0) == s(-1) and isPalindrome (s[1:-1])
isPalindrome('aba')

You can also dir(str), or call help(str) to page through all of the doc strings.
