Problem Description:
For any 4-digit integer except the ones with all the digits being the same, if we sort the digits in non-increasing order first, and then in non-decreasing order, a new number can be obtained by taking the second number from the first one. Repeat in this manner we will soon end up at the number 6174
– the black hole of 4-digit numbers. This number is named Kaprekar Constant.
For example, start from 6767
, we’ll get:
7766 - 6677 = 1089
9810 - 0189 = 9621
9621 - 1269 = 8352
8532 - 2358 = 6174
7641 - 1467 = 6174
... ...
Given any 4-digit number, you are supposed to illustrate the way it gets into the black hole.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case which gives a positive integer N N N in the range ( 0 , 1 0 4 ) (0,10^4) (0,104).
Output Specification:
If all the
4
4
4 digits of
N
N
N are the same, print in one line the equation N - N = 0000
. Else print each step of calculation in a line until 6174
comes out as the difference. All the numbers must be printed as 4-digit numbers.
Sample Input 1:
6767
Sample Output 1:
7766 - 6677 = 1089
9810 - 0189 = 9621
9621 - 1269 = 8352
8532 - 2358 = 6174
Sample Input 2:
2222
Sample Output 2:
2222 - 2222 = 0000
Problem Analysis:
根据题意,所有的数一定是
4
4
4 位整数,可以开一个大小为
4
4
4 的数组,然后将每个整数的每一位数存入数组中,以方便进行升序和降序操作。当结果为 6174
或 0
时,即可结束操作。
详细步骤见代码。
