题目：

Given an integer n, find the closest integer (not including itself), which is a palindrome.

The ‘closest‘ is defined as absolute difference minimized between two integers.

Example 1:

Input: "123"
Output: "121"

Note:

1. The input n is a positive integer represented by string, whose length will not exceed 18.
2. If there is a tie, return the smaller one as answer.

题解：

First find all the candidates, add "9999..999", "10000..0001".

Add first half, + reverse of (first half). 

e.g. 12567, its first half is 125, the candiates couldbe 12521, 12421, 12621.

Then check all the candidates and find the closest one.

Time Complexity: O(mn). m = is candidates list size. n is candiate length.

Space: O(mn).
