Write a function that takes a reference to a string as an argument and which converts the string to all uppercase.
// Write a function that takes 1 argument, a string. // It returns true if the string is a palindrome (the same forwards and backwards). // It returns false if the string is not a palindrome.
const isPalindrome = (string) => {
// your code here...
// Examples
isPalindrome("cat") // returns false
//isPalindrome("level") // returns true
}
In C++, write a function isVowel that returns true if a character is a vowel (whether you want to include 'y' as a vowel or not is up to you) and false otherwise. Use this function in a program that asks the user to enter a string of characters and outputs the number of vowels.
