function isPalindrome(str)
    str = str:gsub('%s', ''):lower()
    return str == str:reverse()

local input = "A man a plan a canal Panama"
if isPalindrome(input) then
    print("It's a palindrome!")
else
    print("It's not a palindrome.")
end

Testing out a new voting system of using strawpoll so that vote totals can be hidden. A thing I noticed in some of the previous rounds was that people would pile on to the same option. Loses a bit of the ease of vote but shouldnt be too bad since you can just instantly vote after you go to the site

You can vote for what you think it is here: https://strawpoll.com/xVg7j6Q5Rnr

Voting ends in 12 hours and then ill post here with the results. You can talk about it below but if you want to talk about the correct answer put it in spoiler tags

Guess the Language: #5 (programming.dev)

Back from a small break and doing some more programming trivia! Doing a bit of a different format this time as it was a bit hard to guess if you didnt know the names of a bunch of different programming languages by memory

There will be 4 options in the comments you can vote for. Just upvote the one that you think is the answer and ill post the answer + results ~ 12 hours after it started

For this question its just a simple hello world statement
