    meh there is an easy way make a dictionary spam all the words in and use built in functions to do the rest in python

    @batuhanfaik You don't need a dictionary for it, you just have to split the string into words and check which are the same if you reverse them. Then return the longest of them :-)

    @Python yeah you could do that but why return one variable instead of one i could return the amount of letters and the word in one line with dicts rather than return one by one with list (i know you can collapse it in to one line but simplicity might be the key for him)

    I've only posted a couple times on SO with genuine questions - and both times I immediately received responses of hate and condescending feedback.

    you guys realize that's not Stack Overflow, right? That's another Stack Exchange site called "Programming Puzzles and Code Golf".
