Palindrome

A word or sentence that reads the same way forwards and backwards is a palindrome. For example kayak and racecar are palindromes.

You're going to create a Palindrome module which can determine if a string is a palindrome.

Palindrome.palindrome?("kayak")
true
Example Solution 
defmodule Palindrome do
  def palindrome?(string) do
    string
    |> String.split("")
    |> Enum.reverse()
    |> Enum.join() == string
  end
end

Implement the Palindrome module as documented below.

defmodule Palindrome do
  @moduledoc """
  Documentation for `Palindrome`.
  """

  @doc """
  Determine if a string is a palindrome.

  ## Examples

    iex> Palindrome.palindrome?("baab")
    true

    iex> Palindrome.palindrome?("racecar")
    true

    iex> Palindrome.palindrome?("kayak")
    true

    iex> Palindrome.palindrome?("apples")
    false
  """
  def palindrome?(string) do
  end
end
