Problem: Strobogrammatic Number

Medium

30 min

Understand how to check if a numeric string remains the same when rotated 180 degrees, known as a strobogrammatic number. This lesson teaches you to apply the two-pointer method for efficient problem solving and prepares you to implement this logic in coding interview scenarios.

Statement

Given a string num representing an integer, determine whether it is a strobogrammatic number. Return TRUE if the number is strobogrammatic or FALSE if it is not.

Note: A strobogrammatic number appears the same when rotated $180$ degrees (viewed upside down). For example, “69” is strobogrammatic because it looks the same when flipped upside down, while “962” is not.

Constraints:

$1 <=$ num.length $<= 50$
num contains only digits.
num has no leading zeros except when the number itself is zero.
