Finding Palindromes Using Python

Nice. Here is another approach using functions from itertools. I really like the functions in itertools for these kinds of problems

from itertools import count, takewhile

def is_palindromic(num):
    return num == int(str(num)[::-1])

def palindromic(max_num):
    all_numbers = count()
    nums_palindrome = (num for num in all_numbers if is_palindromic(num))
    return takewhile(lambda x: x < max_num, nums_palindrome)

output = list(palindromic(500))
print(output)
print(len(output))
