so i have this function:
static int[] AddArrays(int[] a, int[] b)
{
int length1 = a.Length;
int length2 = b.Length;
int carry = 0;
int max_length = Math.Max(length1, length2) + 1;
int[] minimum_arr = new int[max_length - length1].Concat(a).ToArray();
int[] maximum_arr = new int[max_length - length2].Concat(b).ToArray();
int[] new_arr = new int[max_length];
for (int i = max_length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
int first_digit = maximum_arr[i];
int second_digit = i - (max_length - minimum_arr.Length) >= 0 ? minimum_arr[i - (max_length - minimum_arr.Length)] : 0;
if (second_digit + first_digit + carry > 9)
{
new_arr[i] = (second_digit + first_digit + carry) % 10;
carry = 1;
}
else
{
new_arr[i] = second_digit + first_digit + carry;
carry = 0;
}
}
if (carry == 1)
{
int[] result = new int[max_length + 1];
result[0] = 1;
Array.Copy(new_arr, 0, result, 1, max_length);
return result;
}
else
{
return new_arr;
}
}
it basically takes 2 lists of digits and adds them together. the point of this is that each array of digits represent a number that is bigger then the integer limits. now this function is close to working the results get innacurate at certein places and i honestly have no idea why. for example if the function is given these inputs:
"1481298410984109284109481491284901249018490849081048914820948019" and
"3475893498573573849739857349873498739487598" (both of these are being turned into a array of integers before being sent to the function)
the expected output is:
1,481,298,410,984,109,284,112,957,384,783,474,822,868,230,706,430,922,413,560,435,617
and what i get is:
1,481,298,410,984,109,284,457,070,841,142,258,634,158,894,233,092,241,356,043,561,7
i would very much appreciate some help with this ive been trying to figure it out for hours and i cant seem to get it to work perfectly.
I suggest Reverse arrays a and b and use good old school algorithm:
static int[] AddArrays(int[] a, int[] b) {
Array.Reverse(a);
Array.Reverse(b);
int[] result = new int[Math.Max(a.Length, b.Length) + 1];
int carry = 0;
int value = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < Math.Max(a.Length, b.Length); ++i) {
value = (i < a.Length ? a[i] : 0) + (i < b.Length ? b[i] : 0) + carry;
result[i] = value % 10;
carry = value / 10;
}
if (carry > 0)
result[result.Length - 1] = carry;
else
Array.Resize(ref result, result.Length - 1);
// Let's restore a and b
Array.Reverse(a);
Array.Reverse(b);
Array.Reverse(result);
return result;
}
Demo:
string a = "1481298410984109284109481491284901249018490849081048914820948019";
string b = "3475893498573573849739857349873498739487598";
string c = string.Concat(AddArrays(
a.Select(d => d - '0').ToArray(),
b.Select(d => d - '0').ToArray()));
Console.Write(c);
Output:
1481298410984109284112957384783474822868230706430922413560435617
So the problem that I'm trying to optimize is to find and print all four-digit numbers of the type ABCD for which: A + B = C + D.
For example:
1001
1010
1102
etc.
I have used four for loops to solve this (one for every digit of the number).
for (int a = 1; a <= 9; a++)
{
for (int b = 0; b <= 9; b++)
{
for (int c = 0; c <= 9; c++)
{
for (int d = 0; d <= 9; d++)
{
if ((a + b) == (c + d))
{
Console.WriteLine(" " + a + " " + b + " " + c + " " + d);
}
}
}
}
}
My question is: how can I solve this using only 3 for loops?
Here's an option with two loops (though still 10,000 iterations), separating the pairs of digits:
int sumDigits(int input)
{
int result = 0;
while (input != 0)
{
result += input % 10;
input /= 10;
}
return result;
}
//optimized for max of two digits
int sumDigitsAlt(int input)
{
return (input % 10) + ( (input / 10) % 10);
}
// a and b
for (int i = 0; i <= 99; i++)
{
int sum = sumDigits(i);
// c and d
for (int j = 0; j <= 99; j++)
{
if (sum == sumDigits(j))
{
Console.WriteLine( (100 * i) + j);
}
}
}
I suppose the while() loop inside of sumDigits() might count as a third loop, but since we know we have at most two digits we could remove it if needed.
And, of course, we can use a similar tactic to do this with one loop which counts from 0 to 9999, and even that we can hide:
var numbers = Enumerable.Range(0, 10000).
Where(n => {
// there is no a/b
if (n < 100 && n == 0) return true;
if (n < 100) return false;
int sumCD = n % 10;
n /= 10;
sumCD += n % 10;
n /= 10;
int sumAB = n % 10;
n /= 10;
sumAB += n % 10;
return (sumAB == sumCD);
});
One approach is to write a method that takes in an integer and returns true if the integer is four digits and the sum of the first two equal the sum of the second two:
public static bool FirstTwoEqualLastTwo(int input)
{
if (input < 1000 || input > 9999) return false;
var first = input / 1000;
var second = (input - first * 1000) / 100;
var third = (input - first * 1000 - second * 100) / 10;
var fourth = input - first * 1000 - second * 100 - third * 10;
return (first + second) == (third + fourth);
}
Then you can write a single loop from 1000-9999 and output the numbers for which this is true with a space between each digit (not sure why that's the output, but it appears that's what you were doing in your sample code):
static void Main(string[] args)
{
for (int i = 1000; i < 10000; i++)
{
if (FirstTwoEqualLastTwo(i))
{
Console.WriteLine(" " + string.Join(" ", i.ToString().ToArray()));
}
}
Console.Write("Done. Press any key to exit...");
Console.ReadKey();
}
We can compute the value of d from the values of a,b,c.
for (int a = 1; a <= 9; a++)
{
for (int b = 0; b <= 9; b++)
{
for (int c = 0; c <= 9; c++)
{
if (a + b >= c && a + b <= 9 + c)
{
int d = a + b - c;
Console.WriteLine(" " + a + " " + b + " " + c + " " + d);
}
}
}
}
We can further optimize by changing the condition of the third loop to for (int c = max(0, a + b - 9); c <= a + b; c++) and getting rid of the if statement.
This isn't regular rounding thing which rounds up or down based of a single value.
I would want to have a function where I pass the amount as integer and denominations as array of integer.
What that function should return to me is a nearest possible integer value achievable with passed array of denominations.
Whether to round up or down will again be sent as a parameter.
Code:
var amount = 61; // for. e.g.
int[] denoms = [20, 50]; // for. e.g.
bool roundUp = true;
amount = RoundAmount(amount, denoms, roundUp);
Expected result :
RoundAmount function should return me the nearest possible amount achievable with denoms that I have passed.
If roundUp = true, The return value should be 70, because 70 = 20+50
and amount 70 can be achieved by one note of 20s and one note of 50s.
If roundUp = false, It should have returned 60, because 60 =
20+20+20 and amount 60 can be achieved by 3 notes of 20s
What I got so far :
I was only reached to the point where I can manage to round the amount up or down based on a single integer (and not the array of integers)
public int RoundAmount(int amount, int value, bool roundUp)
{
if (roundUp)
amount = amount - (amount % value) + value;
else
amount = amount - (amount % value)
return amount;
}
Edit:
I have another recursive function which checks if amount is achievable or not,
Only if amount isn't achievable, RoundAmount function is called.
So in my example, amount = 70 will never be the input because 70 is achievable with available denoms and I won't call the RoundAmount in that case.
Solution: (Thanks to maraca and Koray)
I'm glad its working with long numbers though it wasn't original requirement.
private static long RoundAmount_maraca(long a, long[] d, bool up)
{
d = d.ToArray();
Array.Sort(d);
if (a < d[0])
return up ? d[0] : 0;
long count = 0;
for (long i = 0; i < d.Length; i++)
{
if (d[i] == 0)
continue;
for (long j = i + 1; j < d.Length; j++)
if (d[j] % d[i] == 0)
d[j] = 0;
if (d[i] > a && !up)
break;
d[count++] = d[i];
if (d[i] > a)
break;
}
if (count == 1)
return (!up ? a : (a + d[0] - 1)) / d[0] * d[0];
long gcd = euclid(d[1], d[0]);
for (long i = 2; i < count && gcd > 1; i++)
gcd = euclid(d[i], gcd);
if (up)
a = (a + gcd - 1) / gcd;
else
a /= gcd;
for (long i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
d[i] /= gcd;
if (a % d[i] == 0)
return a * gcd;
}
var set = new HashSet<long>();
set.Add(0);
long last = 0;
for (long n = d[0]; ; n++)
{
if (!up && n > a)
return last * gcd;
for (long i = 0; i < count && n - d[i] >= 0; i++)
{
if (set.Contains(n - d[i]))
{
if (n >= a)
return n * gcd;
if ((a - n) % d[0] == 0)
return a * gcd;
set.Add(n);
last = n;
break;
}
}
}
}
private static long euclid(long a, long b)
{
while (b != 0)
{
long h = a % b;
a = b;
b = h;
}
return a;
}
I am assuming that you are looking for a performant solution with a relatively small amount of denominations b (e.g. less than 100 denominations). While the amount a and the denominations d[i] can be quite large (e.g. less than 10^6).
Sort d ascending and remove duplicates. When rounding down only keep the values smaller or equal than a and when rounding up keep only the smallest value greater or equal than a and discard the greater ones.
(Optional) remove all numbers which are a multiple of some other number O(b^2).
Calculate the greatest common divisor gcd of the denominations. You can use the Euclidean algorithm starting with the first two numbers then calculate the greatest common divisor of the result and the third number and so on. Of course you can stop as soon as you reach one.
Divide a by gcd, round like you want to round the result (using integer division, rounding down: a /= gcd, rounding up: a = (a + gcd - 1) / gcd).
Divide all denominations by gcd (d[i] /= gcd). Now the greatest common divisor of all denominations is one and therefore it is guaranteed that a Frobenius number exists (all amounts greater than that number can be built and require no rounding). While doing so you can also check if the new value leads to a % d[i] == 0 and immediately return a * gcd if so.
Create a hash set for the values which can be built. It is better than an array because the array is potentially wasting a lot of space (remember the Frobenius number). Add zero to the set.
Create a variable n for the current number, initialize with smallest denomination: n = d[0].
If n can be built with any of the available denominations, in other words the set contains any of n - d[i] then proceed with the next step. Otherwise increase n by one and repeat this step unless n == a and you are rounding down, then you can return the last number that could be built multiplied by gcd immediately. You could also remove n - d[b - 1] from the set each time because this value will not be requested any more.
If n >= a return n * gcd (can only be true when rounding up, rounding down would have returned the result in step 8. already). Else if (a - n) % d[0] == 0 return a * gcd. This check is even better than looking for the Frobenius number (the number after which d[0] - 1 consecutive values can be built), it is more or less the equivalent (d[0] - 1 consecutive values means the difference between one of them and a modulo d[0] has to be zero) but could return much faster. Else increase n by one and continue with step 8.
An example with d = {4, 6} and a = 9999 (or any other big odd number) shows the advantages of this algorithm. It is easy to see that odd numbers can never be built and we would fill up the whole set with all even numbers except 2. But if we divide by gcd we get d = {2, 3} and aUp = 5000 and aDown = 4999. The Frobenius number for {2, 3} is 1 (the only number which cannot be built), so after at most 3 (first number where all modulos are covered) steps (instead of 10000) the modulo would be zero and we would return a * gcd which gives 9998 or 10000 depending on rounding direction, which is the correct result.
Here is the code with test included. I did six runs on my crappy notebook and it took 90, 92, 108, 94, 96 and 101 seconds (edit: early loop escape if current denomination greater than current number && n - d[i] >= 0 halves the times and gives an average of about 45s) for 7200 random roundings (3600 in each direction) with combinations of different amounts of denominations (range 2 to 100), dMax (range 100 to 10^6) and aMax (range 10^4 to 10^6), (see the code at the bottom for the exact values). I think the time for the random number generation and output can be neglected, so with this input and the given ranges the algorithm rounds about 160 numbers per second on average (edit: see thirty times faster version below).

As it turns out #Koray's edit 7 is about three times faster for the given input (only for very large gcds my algorithm above is faster). So to get the ultimate algorithm I replaced the dynamic programming part of my algorithm by that of #Koray (with some improvements). It worked, it is roughly ten times faster than edit 7 and thirty times faster than the algorithm above. Which would give about 5000 roundings per second (very rough estimation) on average.

Edit 8
I have made some improvements and in random tests outperformed #maraca's latest update :) If you choose to use my custom stack class, please make measurements in release mode. (This custom stack class is of course much slower in debug mode but %5-15 faster than .NET's in relase mode. In my tests using the .NET Stack class did not change the performance comparison between two, its just an extra boost.)

This is a standard Knapsack problem and you can google it to refer to its wiki page for its concept.
I think your problem can be splitted to two parts.
Do Knapsack for denominations.
Use f[i] to represent the last denomination used to construct amount i, and f[i]==-1 means that i is not able to get.
fill f with -1
f[0] = 0
for i from 0 to target_amount + min(denoms) - 1
for j from 0 to denoms.size()
if f[i - denoms[j]] != -1
{
f[i] = denoms[j]
break
}
Find nearest amount based on roundUp.
roundUp == true
Starting from target_amount, ascendingly find a f[i] which is not -1.
roundUp == false
Starting from target_amount, descendingly find a f[i] which is not -1.
Optional: find which denominations construct your target amount
Backtrack your f[target_amount].
Just fill array of length amount + smallestdenomination + 1 with possible combinations of coins (standard dynamic programming problem).
Then walk this array from amount index in rounding direction.
Delphi example
var
A : array of Integer;
Denoms: array of Integer;
coin, amount, idx, i, Maxx: Integer;
roundUp: Boolean;
s: string;
begin
amount := 29;
SetLength(Denoms, 2);
Denoms[0] := 7;
Denoms[1] := 13;
Maxx := amount + MinIntValue(Denoms);
SetLength(A, Maxx + 1);
A[0] := 1;
for coin in Denoms do begin
for i := 0 to Maxx - coin do
if A[i] <> 0 then
A[i + coin] := coin;
end;
roundUp := True;
idx := amount;
i := 2 * Ord(roundUp) - 1;// 1 for roundUp=true, -1 for false
while A[idx] = 0 do //scan for nonzero entry
idx := idx + i;
s := '';
while idx > 0 do begin //roll back to get components of this sum
s := s + Format('%d ', [A[idx]]);
idx := idx - A[idx];
end;
Memo1.Lines.Add(s);
outputs 13 13 7 combination for roundUp := True; and 7 7 7 7 otherwise.
(Code does not seek for "optimal" solution)
Example for coins 3 and 5:
[0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 5, 3, 0, 5, 3, 5]
To find what coins make cell 8, step down by cell value:by 5 then by 3.
The Coin Problem is a well-researched topic and I would like to reference some papers where you can probably find better solutions:
The Money Changing Problem Revisited
Coin Problem
Also, using C# (statically typed language) will restrict you from having the most efficient algorithm over a dynamically typed language. If you plan to go down that route, you can have a look at this website The Frobenius problem. You can right click and inspect the code (though I really didn't understand much having no experience of javascript)
Anyhow, this is how I would tackle the problem in C#:
private static List<int> _denominations = new List<int>() { 1000, 5000 };
private static int _denominationMin = _denominations[0];
static void Main()
{
bool roundDown = false;
Console.WriteLine("Enter number: ");
int input = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
if(roundDown)
{
for(int i = input; i > _denominationMin; i--)
{
if(Check(0,0,i))
{
Console.WriteLine("Number: {0}", i);
break;
}
}
}
else
{
for (int i = input; i < int.MaxValue; i++)
{
if (Check(0, 0, i))
{
Console.WriteLine("Number: {0}", i);
break;
}
}
}
Console.Read();
}
static bool Check(int highest, int sum, int goal)
{
//Bingo!
if (sum == goal)
{
return true;
}
//Oops! exceeded here
if (sum > goal)
{
return false;
}
// Loop through _denominations.
foreach (int value in _denominations)
{
// Add higher or equal amounts.
if (value >= highest)
{
if(Check(value, sum + value, goal))
{
return true;
}
}
}
return false;
}
Worked well with {4,6} for input 19999, so I don't think it is all that bad. Surely has scope for improvements for not running into Stackoverflow Exception. One could half the input or quarter it. Or subtract a number that has factors whose subset are the denominations. Also, important to have the denominations sorted and contain no multiples of another entry E.x. {4, 6, 8} -> {4, 6}.
Anyhow, if I have time I will try to make it more efficient. Just wanted to provide an alternate solution.
