IsPalindrome: Matlab Function to Check Word

[Moi]

I am trying to write a function called ispalindrome, with Matlab, It is supposed to check if a word is a palindrom or not.
It will then return a value True (1)or False(0) for each word.

I have tried to run this, but something seems to be wrong...
function isPalindrome (word)
word = input('isPalindrome ', 's');

if word == strcmpi(word);
disp ('1')
else
disp ('0')
end

A google will tell you, that:

TF = strcmpi(string,string) compares two strings for equality, ignoring any differences in letter case. The strings are considered to be equal if the size and content of each are the same. The function returns a scalar logical 1 for equality, or scalar logical 0 for inequality.

Thus strcmpi('yes' , 'Yes') = true.

But 'yes' is not a palindrom. A palindrom is a word that is spelled the same way forward/backward, like 'refer' or 'bob'.

I used 'strcmp' instead? But I still get Error :-)
