a simple project working a script that checks inputs to see if they are a palindrome

Is Palindrome

This piece of work was born from a pair programming exercise I undertook.

The idea being that you write a script that could check various inputs and return true if the input is a palindrome and false if it is not.

To try this code out:

1. clone this repository
2. cd into the isPalindrome directory
3. run node in your command line
4. require the code const isPalindrome = require('./isPalindrome');
5. try it out isPalindrome('racecar');

To run the tests

1. Assuming you are still within the isPalindrome directory run npm install
2. run npm test

Note: At present this code does not handle date objects, as we know some dates can be palindromes when formatted correctly however I feel like if you're passing a date object into the method it should probably throw an error, but I need to think on this a bit more.

TODO: handle throwing an exception if passed an array or object
