The ? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k problem
The ? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k problem |
The problem
Given the following formula, one can set operators '+' or '-' instead of each '?', in order to obtain a given k
? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k
For example: to obtain k = 12 , the expression to be used will be:
- 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 - 7 = 12
with n = 7
The Input
The first line is the number of test cases, followed by a blank line.
Each test case of the input contains integer k (0<=|k|<=1000000000).
Each test case will be separated by a single line.
The Output
For each test case, your program should print the minimal possible n (1<=n) to obtain k with the above formula.
Print a blank line between the outputs for two consecutive test cases.
Sample Input
2 12 -3646397
Sample Output
7 2701
注意题目要求的格式:多组数据的测试,每组自定义要测试的次数,且次数与次数之间有一个空行隔开,组与组之间没有空行。
#include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> int main() { long long sum,n,t,k,i,cha,j,z; while(scanf("%lld",&n)!=EOF) { while(n--) { z = 0; sum = 0; scanf("%lld",&t); t = abs(t); for(i = 1;; i++) { sum = sum + i; if(sum==t) { printf("%lld\n",i); break; } else if((sum>t) && ((sum - t)%2 == 0) && (sum - t)<=(i*(i+1))) { printf("%lld\n",i); break; } } if(n>0) printf("\n"); } } return 0; }
上面是我自己写的代码,下面的是别人的代码,下面的运行时间更短#include<stdio.h> int main() { int n,j; while(scanf("%d",&n)!=EOF) { while(n--) { int num,k=0,sum=0,p; scanf("%d",&num); if(num==0) printf("3\n"); else { if(num<0) num=-num; while(sum<num){ k++; sum+=k; } p=sum-num; if(p%2==0) printf("%d\n",k); else { for(j=k+1;;j++) { p=p+j; if(p%2==0){ printf("%d\n",j); break; } } } } if(n) printf("\n"); } } return 0; }
