    bool isNthBitSet(unsigned int x, unsigned int n)
    {
        return (x & (1 << (n-1)))? true: false;
    }
    bool isPalindrome(unsigned int x)
    {
        int l = 1; // Initialize left position
        int r = sizeof(unsigned int)*8; // initialize right position
        // One by one compare bits
        while (l < r)
        {
            if (isNthBitSet(x, l) != isNthBitSet(x, r))
                return false;
            l++;
    r--;
        }
        return true;
    }
