Welcome to the Palindrome Checker program! This Python application determines if a given string reads the same backward as forward. It handles multi-line inputs, ignores non-alphanumeric characters, and is case-insensitive. Follow the instructions below to understand and use the program.

Features ✨

• Palindrome Detection: Checks if the input string is a palindrome.
• Multi-Line Input Support: Allows long inputs across multiple lines.
• Formatted Output: Provides clear and user-friendly messages with emojis.
• User Interaction: Prompts for continuous checks or exit.

How to Use 📜

Installation ⚙️

1. Ensure you have Python installed on your system (Python 3.6 or later recommended).
2. Save the Python code into a file named palindrome_checker.py.

Running the Program 🚀

1. Open a terminal or command prompt.

2. Navigate to the directory where palindrome_checker.py is saved.

3. Run the program using Python.

   git clone https://github.com/mdriyadkhan585/palindrome-checker-python
   cd palindrome-checker-python
   python palindrome_checker.py

Using the Program 🖥️

1. Enter a String: When prompted, enter the string you want to check.
   • For multi-line input, end each line with a backslash (\) to continue on the next line.
2. View Results: The program will indicate whether the input string is a palindrome.
3. Continue or Exit: After checking, you’ll be asked if you want to check another string.
   • Type y or Y to check another string.
   • Type n or N to exit the program.

Example Usage 🏆
