COMMENTS
A palindrome is a word that when written in reverse results in the same word. for example, "racecar" reversed is still "racecar". Related to palindromes are semordnilaps. These are words that when written in reverse result in a distinct valid word. For example, "stressed" written in reverse is "desserts". Not all words are palindromes or semordnilaps. While certainly not all numbers are palindromes, all non-palindromic numbers when written in reverse will form semordnilaps. Narrowing to primes brings back the same trichotomy as with words: some numbers are emirps, some numbers are palindromic primes, but some words are neither.
The term "emirp" was coined by the American mathematician Jeremiah Farrell (1937-2022). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 11 2021
