description <p>We study a nonlinear problem of pendulum-type for a <mml:math alttext="$p$"> <mml:mi>p</mml:mi> </mml:math>-Laplacian with nonlinear periodic-type boundary conditions. Using an extension of Mawhin's continuation theorem for nonlinear operators, we prove the existence of a solution under a Landesman-Lazer type condition. Moreover, using the method of upper and lower solutions, we generalize a celebrated result by Castro for the classical pendulum equation.</p>
