Palindrome check in python : <p>Hello to everyone on stack.</p>

<p>I am trying to make a python program capable of searching for palindromes.</p>

<p>If my inputs were simply words to evaluate, I would have had no problem writing the code </p>

<pre><code>def ispalindrome(word):
    return word == word[::-1]
</code></pre>

<p>but I am trying to do more than this.</p>

<p>I would like to check if a string 'contains' a palindrome</p>

<p>for example,</p>

<pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt;ispalindrome('rapparee')
rappar
</code></pre>

<p>How should I approach this problem?</p>
