Numerical Palindrome

A palindromic number is a number which reads the same forward and backward. 
  • Write any whole number.
  • Reverse its digits and add to the previous number.
  • To this sum add the number formed by reversing the sum’s digits.
  • Continue this process. Ultimately you will reach a palindromic number.
Example:
  • Let’s start with 3659.
  • Reversed number is 9563.
  • Sum of the two numbers is 3659 + 9563 = 13,222.
  • Continuing the process we get 13,222 + 22,231 = 33,453 (palindromic number).
