You could simplify your code. You can convert a number using sprintf to get 4 middle digits.

Code: Select all

sprintf(s, "%08d", n * n);

for (n = 0, i = 2; i < 6; i++) n = n * 10 + s[i] - '0';
I use array used[10000] (initially set to 0) to mark previous numbers.

Code: Select all

used[n] = 1
Now you can check in O(1) if a number was already used. :)

Thanks lighted! Got AC now!! :D
My mistake was not considering 0 as a new random number. Before counting it, I stopped, which was wrong. :p
I am sending you my modified code in PM. :)
