check elements on string to see if palindrome

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main ()

{

string word;

int wordsize;

// use getline, not cin >> because using strings

cout << "Please enter a word." << endl;

getline (cin, word);

wordsize = word.length();

cout << "The length of the word is " << wordsize << "." << endl;

for (int i=0; i < wordsize/2 ; i++)

{

// if statement for word if equal, break loop and return YES

if (word[i]==word[wordsize-i-1])

{

cout << "Checking element " << i << " with element " << wordsize - i -1 << "." << endl;

}

// if statement for word not equal, returns NO

if (word[i]!=word[wordsize-i-1])

{

cout << "Checking element " << i << " with element " << wordsize - i -1 << "." << endl;

cout << "NO: it is not a palindrome." << endl;

return 0;

}

}

cout << "YES: it is a palindrome." << endl;

return 0;
