Deque Palindrome Project
Test your knowledge about using a deque data structure in order to determine if a given string is a palindrome! - practice Project
Rabin-Karp Algorithm Project
In this project, you will build on the Rabin-Karp Algorithm to handle multiple patterns of varying lengths. Once this has been done, you will extend the functionality of the algorithm to find two-dimensional patterns in a two-dimensional text!
