Palindrome Permutation
Given a string consisting of lowercase English letters, check whether any permutation of the string can form a palindrome.
A palindrome is a string that reads the same forward and backward. A permutation of the string is a reordering of its characters. The task is to determine if it is possible to rearrange the letters such that the resulting string is a palindrome.
The necessary and sufficient condition for a string to have a palindromic permutation is that at most one character appears an odd number of times. In mathematical terms, if \( f(c) \) is the frequency of character \( c \) in string \( s \), then \( s \) can be rearranged into a palindrome if and only if:
\( \sum_{c\in s} \mathbb{1}_{\{f(c) \;\%\; 2 \neq 0\}} \le 1 \)
Read the input from standard input and output the result to standard output.
inputFormat
The input consists of a single line containing a non-empty string of lowercase alphabetical characters.
Example:
civic
outputFormat
Output a single line with either True
or False
(without quotes), indicating whether any permutation of the given string can form a palindrome.
