Problem with Euler 27 - c++

Euler published the remarkable quadratic formula:
n² + n + 41
It turns out that the formula will produce 40 primes for the consecutive
values n = 0 to 39. However, when n =
40, 40^(2) + 40 + 41 = 40(40 + 1) + 41
is divisible by 41, and certainly when
n = 41, 41² + 41 + 41 is clearly
divisible by 41.
Using computers, the incredible formula n² − 79n + 1601 was
discovered, which produces 80 primes
for the consecutive values n = 0 to
79. The product of the coefficients, −79 and 1601, is −126479.
Considering quadratics of the form:
n² + an + b, where |a| < 1000 and |b| < 1000
where |n| is the modulus/absolute value of n
e.g. |11| = 11 and |−4| = 4
Find the product of the coefficients, a and b, for the
quadratic expression that produces the
maximum number of primes for
consecutive values of n, starting with
n = 0.
This is the problem for Euler 27.
I have attempted a solution for trying to find the equation n^2 + n + 41 to see if my logic is correct then I will attempt to see if it works on the actual problem. Here is my code (I will place comments explaining the whole program also, I would start reading from the int main function first) just make sure to read the comments so you can understand my logic:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
bool isPrime(int c) {
int test;
//Eliminate with some simple primes to start off with to increase speed...
if (c == 2) {
return true;
}
if (c == 3) {
return true;
}
if (c == 5) {
return true;
}
//Actual elimination starts here.
if (c <= 1 || c % 2 == 0 || c % 3 == 0 || c % 5 == 0) {
return false;
}
//Then using brute force test if c is divisible by anything lower than it except 1
//only if it gets past the first round of elimination, and if it doesn't
//pass this round return false.
for (test = c; test > 1; test--) {
if (c % test == 0) {
return false;
}
}
//If the c pasts all these tests it should be prime, therefore return true.
return true;
}
int main (int argc, char * const argv[]) {
//a as in n^2 + "a"n + b
int a = 0;
//b as in n^2 + an + "b"
int b = 0;
//n as in "n"^2 + a"n" + b
int n = 0;
//this will hold the result of n^2 + an + b so if n = 1 a = 1
//and b = 1 then c = 1^2 + 1(1) + 1 = 3
int c = 0;
//bestChain: This is to keep track for the longest chain of primes
//in a row found.
int bestChain = 0;
//chain: the current amount of primes in a row.
int chain = 0;
//bestAB: Will hold the value for the two numbers a and b that
// give the most consecutive primes.
int bestAB[2] = { 0 };
//Check every value of a in this loop
for (a = 0; a < 40; a++) {
//Check every value of b in this loop.
for (b = 0; b < 42; b++) {
//Give c a starting value
c = n*n + a*n + b;
//(1)Check if it is prime. And keep checking until it is not
//and keep incrementing n and the chain. (2)If it not prime then che
//ck if chain is the highest chain and assign the bestChain
// to the current chain. (3)Either way reset the values
// of n and chain.
//(1)
while (isPrime(c) == true) {
n++;
c = n*n + a*n + b;
chain++;
}
//(2)
if (bestChain < chain) {
bestChain = chain;
bestAB[0] = a;
bestAB[1] = b;
chain = 0;
n = 0;
}
//(3)
else {
n = 0;
chain = 0;
}
}
}
//Lastly print out the best values of a and b.
cout << bestAB[0] << " " << bestAB[1];
return 0;
}
But, I get the results 0 and 2 for a and b respectively, why is this so? Where am I going wrong? If it is still unclear just ask for more clarification on a specific area.

Your isprime method is inefficient -- but also wrong:
for (test = c; test > 1; test--) {
if (c % test == 0) {
return false;
}
}
in the first iteration of the for loop, test = c, so c % test is just c % c, which will always be 0. So your isprime method claims everything is non-prime (other than 2, 3, 5)

for (test = c; test > 1; test--) {
if (c % test == 0) {
return false;
}
}
Do you see the problem with that? If not, try working out some small sample values by hand.

As pointed out by others, your problem is in the isPrime method (test = c, so test % c = c % c == 0 is always true).
You can make your isPrime function run in O(sqrt(n)) instead of O(n) by initializing test to sqrt(c) (and only checking odd numbers). It is easy to see that if a number A is divisible by B < sqrt(A), then C = A/B must be > sqrt(A). Thus if there are no divisors < sqrt(A), there will be no divisors > sqrt(A).
Of course, you can run it a whole lot faster even, by using a probabilistic primality test, e.g. Miller-Rabin's primality test.
Also, I'm not sure, but I suspect you might reach the limit of int fairly quickly. It's probably a better idea to use unsigned long long from the start, before you start getting strange errors due to overflow & wrapping.

How to use a boolean in a while loop C++

What is the correct syntax to use a while loop that exits when a boolean is true.
I'm not sure if this is works right:
while (CheckPalindrome(a, reverse) == false)
{
CalcPalindrome(a, reverse);
n = a;
while (n != 0)
{
remainder = n % 10; //Finds the 1's digit of n
reverse = reverse * 10 + remainder;
n /= 10;
}
CheckPalindrome(a, reverse);
}
You only need to call CheckPalindrome() once, and that's in while(CheckPalindrome())
Also, the proper syntax is while(!CheckPalindrome())
So your optimized code would be:
while (!CheckPalindrome(a, reverse))
{
n = a;
while (n != 0)
{
remainder = n % 10; //Finds the 1's digit of n
reverse = reverse * 10 + remainder;
n /= 10;
}
}
I'm not sure what that inner while loop is supposed to do, but that's the proper syntax for breaking from a while loop when a function returns false

Improving optimization of nested loop

I'm making a simple program to calculate the number of pairs in an array that are divisible by 3 array length and values are user determined.
Now my code is perfectly fine. However, I just want to check if there is a faster way to calculate it which results in less compiling time?
As the length of the array is 10^4 or less compiler takes less than 100ms. However, as it gets more to 10^5 it spikes up to 1000ms so why is this? and how to improve speed?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int N, i, b;
b = 0;
cin >> N;
unsigned int j = 0;
std::vector<unsigned int> a(N);
for (j = 0; j < N; j++) {
cin >> a[j];
if (j == 0) {
}
else {
for (i = j - 1; i >= 0; i = i - 1) {
if ((a[j] + a[i]) % 3 == 0) {
b++;
}
}
}
}
cout << b;
return 0;
}
Your algorithm has O(N^2) complexity. There is a faster way.
(a[i] + a[j]) % 3 == ((a[i] % 3) + (a[j] % 3)) % 3
Thus, you need not know the exact numbers, you need to know their remainders of division by three only. Zero remainder of the sum can be received with two numbers with zero remainders (0 + 0) and with two numbers with remainders 1 and 2 (1 + 2).
The result will be equal to r[1]*r[2] + r[0]*(r[0]-1)/2 where r[i] is the quantity of numbers with remainder equal to i.
int r[3] = {};
for (int i : a) {
r[i % 3]++;
}
std::cout << r[1]*r[2] + (r[0]*(r[0]-1)) / 2;
The complexity of this algorithm is O(N).
I've encountered this problem before, and while I don't find my particular solution, you could improve running times by hashing.
The code would look something like this:
// A C++ program to check if arr[0..n-1] can be divided
// in pairs such that every pair is divisible by k.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
// Returns true if arr[0..n-1] can be divided into pairs
// with sum divisible by k.
bool canPairs(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
// An odd length array cannot be divided into pairs
if (n & 1)
return false;
// Create a frequency array to count occurrences
// of all remainders when divided by k.
map<int, int> freq;
// Count occurrences of all remainders
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
freq[arr[i] % k]++;
// Traverse input array and use freq[] to decide
// if given array can be divided in pairs
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
// Remainder of current element
int rem = arr[i] % k;
// If remainder with current element divides
// k into two halves.
if (2*rem == k)
{
// Then there must be even occurrences of
// such remainder
if (freq[rem] % 2 != 0)
return false;
}
// If remainder is 0, then there must be two
// elements with 0 remainder
else if (rem == 0)
{
if (freq[rem] & 1)
return false;
}
// Else number of occurrences of remainder
// must be equal to number of occurrences of
// k - remainder
else if (freq[rem] != freq[k - rem])
return false;
}
return true;
}
/* Driver program to test above function */
int main()
{
int arr[] = {92, 75, 65, 48, 45, 35};
int k = 10;
int n = sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);
canPairs(arr, n, k)? cout << "True": cout << "False";
return 0;
}
That works for a k (in your case 3)
But then again, this is not my code, but the code you can find in the following link. with a proper explanation. I didn't just paste the link since it's bad practice I think.

Is required to only check up to (num/2+1) to determine if a number if prime?

I have successfully coded such a program to complete this task, however my friend and I are currently having a debate over one of the values.
Here is HIS loop function:
for (int iii = 2; iii < (num / 2 + 1); iii++)
{
if (num%iii == 0)
{
return false;
}
}
return true;
My question to him is, "Why do you need "2+1"?" Can't he just use his declared variable "num"?
You only need to check up to sqrt(num), which is less than or equal num/2 for num >= 4. This is because if a number n > sqrt(num) divides num, then num/n < sqrt(num) divides num.
Proof of that claim:
The square root of a positive number n is defined as the unique positive real number x for which x * x == n holds. Now consider you have a divisor d of n such that d > n. Then there is (because d is a divisor) a natural number d2 such that d * d2 == n. It is obvious that d2 := n / d is such a number. From x * x == n, d * d2 == n and d > x one can conclude d2 < x. That means that if a number greater than x divides n, there also is a number less than x that also divides day. So in conclusion, if no number less or equal x divides n, n is prime.
That means the function is correct for all values greater or equal 2. For num >= 4 this follows immediately from the above. For num <= 1 your function will alway return true because the loop never executes. For 2 <= num <=3 the loop returns true correctly because again, the loop is never entered. (Technically, you need the +1 to proof 5 is prime because 5/2=2 < sqrt(5) because of integer division).
Some improvement:
You could test with 2, and avoid all the other even numbers.
You only need to test until sqrt(number), already explained in other answer.
Code:
#include <cmath>
bool is_prime(unsigned long number) {
if (number % 2 == 0 && number != 2)
return false;
unsigned long sqrt_number = static_cast<unsigned long>(std::sqrt(number));
for (unsigned long i = 3; i <= sqrt_number; i += 2) {
if (number % i == 0)
return false;
}
return true;
}
Your code is implementing a "prime number" test. A number is prime if it is not divisible by any whole number other than itself and 1.
This problem space has some well known parameters/factors.
a) The maximum value that any given number, N, can be divided by to produce an integer value is N/2.
b) If N is divisible by an even number, it will also be divisible by 2, i.e. it must be even.
is_prime(N) {
if is_even(N) {
// if N is 2, it's prime, otherwise
// any even number is divisible by
// 2 and thus not prime.
return (N == 2)
}
md = max_divisor(N)
// we've eliminated even numbers, so we need only
// test odd numbers.
// all numbers are divisible by 1, so start at 3.
for (divisor = 3; divisor <= md; divisor += 2) {
// determine whether divisor divides into N
// without remainder indicating non-prime N
remainder = (N % divisor)
if (remainder != 0)
return false
}
return true
}
The max divisor is a number that, when divided into N, will produce 2.
max_divisor * 2 = N ->
max_divisor = N / 2
So simply:
max_divisor(N) return N / 2
What about checking for even numbers? We can do this one of two ways. We can modulo 2, but many people trying to optimize there code will remember their binary logical and realize they just have to test if the lowest bit (bit 1) is set or not.
0001 = 1 (odd)
0010 = 2 (even)
0011 = 3 (odd)
0100 = 4 (even)
0101 = 5 (odd)
0110 = 6 (even)
0111 = 7 (odd)
very simple:
is_even(N) (N % 2) == 0
or
is_even(N) (N & 1) == 0
And converting to C:
static inline bool isEven(unsigned int number) {
return (number & 1) == 0;
}
static inline unsigned int maxDivisor(unsigned int number) {
return (number / 2);
}
unsigned int isPrime(unsigned int number) {
if (isEven(number)) {
// if N is 2, it's prime, otherwise
// any even number is divisible by
// 2 and thus not prime.
// fluffy expanded version
return (number == 2) ? true : false;
// compact version
// return (number == 2);
}
const unsigned int md = maxDivisor(number);
// we've eliminated even numbers, so we need only
// test odd numbers.
// all numbers are divisible by 1, so start at 3.
for (unsigned int divisor = 3; divisor <= md; divisor += 2) {
// determine whether divisor divides into number
// without remainder indicating non-prime number
const unsigned int remainder = (number % divisor);
if (remainder != 0)
return false;
// compact version:
//if (number % divisor)
// return false;
}
return true;
}
Your friend's "(N / 2) + 1" is because he is using a less-than rather than a <=, you could remove the "+1" in his code by writing the following:
for (int iii = 2; iii <= (num / 2); iii++)

sum of primes under 2000000

I'm trying this program to find the sum of all the primes under two million, but for some reason I am coming up with a number far below what I should be expecting.
Here is my code. A co-working says I might not be catching all the primes with my program but he doesn't know C++ and I don't see how I could be missing them.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int a = 500000;
int e = 0;
// this is an array to hold all the prime number i find,
// it's initialized to the arbitrarily high number of 500000
int list[a];
//here i am initializing the first members of my list to the first primes
list[0] = 2;
list[1] = 3;
list[2] = 5;
a = 3; // i set a = 3 to catch the next coming prime of 7
for (int c = 5; c < 2000000; c++)
{
// this bool is for prime catching,
// if d is false then the number will not be saved into the array
bool d = false;
// this bool is for an exit statement in the following iterative loop,
// if it's false the loop will exit
bool h = true;
for (int i = 0; list[i] < c/2 + 1 && h == true; i++)
{
// this checks to see if a number is evenly
// divisable by any of my primes so far
if (c % list[i] == 0)
{
d = false;
h = false;
}
}
if (d == true)
{
list[a] = c; // if i find a prime i save it into my array
e += c; // if i find a prime i sum it to my total
a++;
}
}
cout << e;
}
d is always and forever false. No code ever sets it to true.
Also, you need to start e at 10 (2 + 3 + 5).
Try this :)
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
bool prime;
int num = 200000;
int sum = 0;
for (int i=3; i<=num; i++){
prime = true;
for(int j=2; j<=i/2; j++){
if(i%j == 0) prime = false;
}
if(prime) sum+=i;
}
cout << sum;
}
In my opinion the most effective way to find if number is prime is to:
Check if number is less than 4 (<=3), then it is prime number. Assuming only positive-integers participate.
Otherwise, check if it is even number - then it is not a prime number.
If more than 3, and is not even - check it against all number from 3 to square-root of given number, skipping all evens in check. If it is multiple of any number, then it is not prime. Otherwise it is prime.
In C++ words:
bool IsPrime(unsigned int nCheck)
{
assert(nCheck>0);
if(nCheck<=3)
return true;
if(nCheck%2==0)
return false;
for(int nCounter = 3; nCounter <= sqrt(nCheck); nCounter += 2) // Skip evens
{
if(nCheck % nCounter == 0)
return false;
}
return true;
}
Any number is by 1 to square-root of that number. For example, 100, is divisible by max 10. Even it is divisible by, say 50, it is also divisible by 5. So, just check from 1 to 10.

Triangle numbers problem....show within 4 seconds

The sequence of triangle numbers is
generated by adding the natural
numbers. So the 7th triangle number
would be 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 =
28. The first ten terms would be:
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55,
...
Let us list the factors of the first
seven triangle numbers:
1: 1
3: 1,3
6: 1,2,3,6
10: 1,2,5,10
15: 1,3,5,15
21: 1,3,7,21
28: 1,2,4,7,14,28
We can see that 28 is the first
triangle number to have over five
divisors.
Given an integer n, display the first
triangle number having at least n
divisors.
Sample Input: 5
Output 28
Input Constraints: 1<=n<=320
I was obviously able to do this question, but I used a naive algorithm:
Get n.
Find triangle numbers and check their number of factors using the mod operator.
But the challenge was to show the output within 4 seconds of input. On high inputs like 190 and above it took almost 15-16 seconds. Then I tried to put the triangle numbers and their number of factors in a 2d array first and then get the input from the user and search the array. But somehow I couldn't do it: I got a lot of processor faults. Please try doing it with this method and paste the code. Or if there are any better ways, please tell me.
Here's a hint:
The number of divisors according to the Divisor function is the product of the power of each prime factor plus 1. For example, let's consider the exponential prime representation of 28:
28 = 22 * 30 * 50 * 71 * 110...
The product of each exponent plus one is: (2+1)*(0+1)*(0+1)*(1+1)*(0+1)... = 6, and sure enough, 28 has 6 divisors.
Now, consider that the nth triangular number can be computed in closed form as n(n+1)/2. We can multiply numbers written in the exponential prime form simply by adding up the exponents at each position. Dividing by two just means decrementing the exponent on the two's place.
Do you see where I'm going with this?
Well, you don't go into a lot of detail about what you did, but I can give you an optimization that can be used, if you didn't think of it...
If you're using the straightforward method of trying to find factors of a number n, by using the mod operator, you don't need to check all the numbers < n. That obviously would take n comparisons...you can just go up to floor(sqrt(n)). For each factor you find, just divide n by that number, and you'll get the conjugate value, and not need to find it manually.
For example: say n is 15.
We loop, and try 1 first. Yep, the mod checks out, so it's a factor. We divide n by the factor to get the conjugate value, so we do (15 / 1) = 15...so 15 is a factor.
We try 2 next. Nope. Then 3. Yep, which also gives us (15 / 3) = 5.
And we're done, because 4 is > floor(sqrt(n)). Quick!
If you didn't think of it, that might be something you could leverage to improve your times...overall you go from O(n) to O(sqrt (n)) which is pretty good (though for numbers this small, constants may still weigh heavily.)
I was in a programming competition way back in school where there was some similar question with a run time limit. the team that "solved" it did as follows:
1) solve it with a brute force slow method.
2) write a program to just print out the answer (you found using the slow method), which will run sub second.
I thought this was bogus, but they won.
see Triangular numbers: a(n) = C(n+1,2) = n(n+1)/2 = 0+1+2+...+n. (Formerly M2535 N1002)
then pick the language you want implement it in, see this:
"... Python
import math
def diminishing_returns(val, scale):
if val < 0:
return -diminishing_returns(-val, scale)
mult = val / float(scale)
trinum = (math.sqrt(8.0 * mult + 1.0) - 1.0) / 2.0
return trinum * scale
..."
First, create table with two columns: Triangle_Number Count_of_Factors.
Second, derive from this a table with the same columns, but consisting only of the 320 rows of the lowest triangle number with a distinct number of factors.
Perform your speedy lookup to the second table.
If you solved the problem, you should be able to access the thread on Project Euler in which people post their (some very efficient) solutions.
If you're going to copy and paste a problem, please cite the source (unless it was your teacher who stole it); and I second Wouter van Niferick's comment.
Well, at least you got a good professor. Performance is important.
Since you have a program that can do the job, you can precalculate all of the answers for 1 .. 320.
Store them in an array, then simply subscript into the array to get the answer. That will be very fast.
