public class NumberPalindrome {

     public static boolean isPalindrome(int number){

        if (number < 0){
            number = number - (number*2);

        String reverseNumber = "";
        int newNumber = number;
        do {
            reverseNumber += Integer.toString(newNumber%10);
            newNumber/=10;
        } while (newNumber != 0);

        if (Integer.parseInt(reverseNumber) == number){
            return true;
        }
        return false;
