This is similar to a palindrome but instead of a word/sentence that reads the same forwards and backward is there a word for words/sentences that read the same right side up and upside-down?
Also what are some examples?

  • It's a calligraphic wordmark (probably) with twofold rotational symmetry. That's probably not good enough for you, though! You might have better luck on the graphic design SE. I've seen these before - and even drawn them - but I can't think of any specific examples. (The ABBA logotype is similar but has reflection symmetry, not rotational.)

That is called an ambigram. It is a typographical design that can be read in more than one direction.




ambigram noun



A typographical design consisting of text modified in such a way that it can be read in multiple orientations, as in mirror image, inverted, or when rotated.

For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day.

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
