Ask the user for a string and print out whether this string is a palindrome or not. (A palindrome is a string that reads the same forwards and backwards.)
Added lower/uppercase solution
Added time processing feedback and time delay

import time
import sys
a = input("Give me a word please: ").lower()
print("Word: " + a + " is processed...")
process = (".....")
for char in process:
    sys.stdout.write(char)
    sys.stdout.flush()
    time.sleep(0.4)
b =a[::-1]
print("This word in reverse is: " + b)
if b == a:
    print("This is a palindrome!")
else:
    print("That word is not a palindrome")
