is_palindrome( $is_not ); # 0
is_palindrome( {a => 1} ); # undef
is_palindrome( ); # undef
# Arrays
my @is = qw/ a ab cc ab a /;
my @is_not = qw/ a ab cc a ba /;
is_palindrome( @is ); # 1

EXPORTS
* is_palindrome
FUNCTIONS
is_palindrome
Returns true if the string, array_ref, or array is a palindrome. If more
than one parameter is passed to the function, then it will blindly
assume that you want to treat them as an array to be tested. This means
that you could, theoretically, pass in a palindrome of array_refs and it
would still pass.
If only one arg is passed, then it is first checked to see if it is an
array ref. If it is an array ref it is treated as a normal array. If it
is a simple scalar, then it is treated as a string. If it is any other
type of ref, then undef is returned. Additionally, a blank array ref
also returns undef.
