Palindrome syndrome

I really do not enjoy coding in MS Visual FoxPro but I have no choice. Damn! I swear not to use it any longer after this RDBMS project.

I was asked by a friend to code a simple program to check if a string is a palindrome. I miss coding in C and assembly a lot! So to satisfy my urge, I tried to do it in a different manner. A timed coding session!

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
	
#define MAXSTRING 50
	
int main(void)
{
	int i;
	int ctr = 0;
	char c;
	char string[MAXSTRING] = "\0";
	char temp[MAXSTRING] = "\0";
	
	printf("Enter a string: ");
	for (i = 0; (c = getchar()) != '\n'; ++i)
		string[i] = c;
	string[i] = '\0';
	
	for (--i; i >= 0; --i){
		temp[ctr] = putchar(string[i]);
		++ctr;
	}
	if (!strcmp(string, temp))
		printf("\nString is a palindrome!\n");
	else
		printf("\nNot a palindrome!\n");
	return 0;
}

I finished coding in 4 minutes and 37 seconds. Not a good record though. So sad.
