          No it isn't!

          Not by my reckoning, anyway!

              Double digits don't count.

              323 <- Yes
              33 <- Not on your Aunt Nelly
              3213 <- Yes

                Back on subject.

                Be careful what you point out to people as the old adage, he who smelt it dealt it, is going to be bang on the money when they point the finger at you.

                Phewwwwww.
                What happens in General, stays in General.
                You know what they say about assumptions!

                  Under what definition?

                  The ones here, here and here suggests that a two digit number is palindromic.

                  (To be truly pedantic, a single digit number is also palindromic)

                    Under the definition used when I was a schoolchild and found such trivialities amusing.

                      Either they taught it wrong, or you remember it wrong then!

                      Here's the first 19999 numerical palindromes - starting with 0 and ending with 99999999

                      You could also check A Handbook of Integer Sequences (N. J. A. Sloane) and The Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (N. J. A. Sloane and Simon Plouffe) if you really want to show how wrong you are.
