Write a function that checks whether an input number is a palindrome or not. [Note: A number or a string is called palindrome if it appears same when written in reverse order also. For example, 12321 is a palindrome while 123421 is not a palindrome]

Write a program to input names of $n$ students and store them in a tuple. Also, input a name from the user and find if this student is present in the tuple or not.

We can accomplish these by:

(a) writing a user defined function

(b) using the built-in function

Write a function that returns the largest element of the list passed as parameter.

Write a program that uses a user defined function that accepts name and gender (as $\mathrm{M}$ for Male, $\mathrm{F}$ for Female) and prefixes $\mathrm{Mr} / \mathrm{Ms}$ on the basis of the gender.

Write a program that has a user defined function NOTES to accept 2 numbers as parameters, if number 1 is less than number 2 then numbers are swapped and returned, i.e., number 2 is returned in place of number 1 and number 1 is reformed in place of number 2 , otherwise the same order is returned.

Write a program that has a user defined function to accept the coefficients of a quadratic equation in variables and calculates its determinant. For example : if the coefficients are stored in the variables $\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}, \mathrm{c}$ then calculate determinant as $\mathrm{b}^{2}$-4ac. Write the appropriate condition to check determinants on positive, zero and negative and output appropriate result.
