How to make this code faster

Can anyone offer any suggestions for how to speed this code up?

I am looking but failing to see anything (probably due to my inexperience in C++). I have a little program that works with Visual Basic to show how long each section of code runs, does anyone know of anything like that for C++?



[cpp ...

I am so dumb. I can't believe I asked that.

Please ignore my question.

I couldn't see the forest for the trees.

(pow((double)ii, 2.0) --> Is there a better way?

I am wanting to square some numbers (for problem 106).

ie

5^2

However the only way that I can see to do it is to use the pow function.

I tried ii^2, however errors where returned.

Does anyone know a better (faster) way?

106 - Wrong Examples?

I am working on problem 106, the program seems to work correctly, except my output is different to the sample output.

input:
10
25
100

my output:
1 4
4 9
36 27

sample output:
1 4
4 9
16 27

I tailored the program to print out all the hits to see why I counted 36 and the sample counted only 16 ...

Thanks,

I have been working on it for two days trying to figure out where the speed issue is. I had some recurssive functions, but dropt them, and still the speed is an issue.

I can't see where else it could be. I haven't really done alot of C++ since university (mostly VB) so I thought this would ...

Time Limit Exceeded

My submission for 101 is coming back time limit exceeded.

The time being usually 10.012 to 10.070 seconds, the limit is 10.000 seconds.

I was trying to shave that hundredth of a second, however it has occured to me that perhaps the online judge automatically stops a program that has been running ...
