//! A module for checking if a given string is a palindrome.

/// Checks if the given string is a palindrome.
///
/// A palindrome is a sequence that reads the same backward as forward.
/// This function ignores non-alphanumeric characters and is case-insensitive.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `s` - A string slice that represents the input to be checked.
///
/// # Returns
///
/// * `true` if the string is a palindrome; otherwise, `false`.
