title: 'Problem 4: Largest palindrome product'
forumTopicId: 302065
---
## Description
<section id='description'>
A palindromic number reads the same both ways. The largest palindrome made from the product of two 2-digit numbers is 9009 = 91 × 99.
Find the largest palindrome made from the product of two <code>n</code>-digit numbers.

## Instructions

</section>
## Tests
<section id='tests'>
```yml
tests:
- text: <code>largestPalindromeProduct(2)</code> should return 9009.
testString: assert.strictEqual(largestPalindromeProduct(2), 9009);
- text: <code>largestPalindromeProduct(3)</code> should return 906609.
testString: assert.strictEqual(largestPalindromeProduct(3), 906609);
```

## Challenge Seed
<section id='challengeSeed'>
<div id='js-seed'>
```js
function largestPalindromeProduct(n) {
// Good luck!
return true;
}
largestPalindromeProduct(3);
```
</div>
</section>
## Solution
<section id='solution'>
```js
const largestPalindromeProduct = (digit)=>{
let start = 1;
let end = Number(`1e${digit}`) - 1;
let palindrome = [];
for(let i=start;i<=end;i++){
for(let j=start;j<=end;j++){
let product = i*j;
let palindromeRegex = /\b(\d)(\d?)(\d?).?\3\2\1\b/gi;
palindromeRegex.test(product) && palindrome.push(product);
}
}
return Math.max(...palindrome);
}
```
