Larry, that is really the most helpful answer I've ever received.
Thank you so much
Well, to be serious, OK, I will think about your hint, as it is
really a sort of hint

Although a quite quite small hint.

Larry, thank you for the small hint.
Although I knew it even before I started implementing some code
that we SHOULD NOT pre-generate all the primes up to 2^32 - 1.
It was pretty obvious.
Now I've designed a decent algorithm for solving this problem.
Although not the best one, of course.
So thank you, anyway.

Try this test case:
The answer must be "does not divide," since:
31! = 2^26 3^14 ... 29^1 31^1
402653184 = 2^27 3^1

10139 Better Algorithm ?

Hi
I tried solving Problem: 10139 but got a Time Limit Exceeded error.
What I was doing was, starting from n, i was calculating the gcd(n,m) and dividing m by gcd(n,m).
then i did the same with n-1, and so on, till m was reduced to 1, or n became 1.
Sometimes, one gets a large prime number as one of the factors, and to handle that i counted the no. of times that the gcd was consecutively 1. In case, this exceeded 50 times, I checked if m was prime, and if it was, exited with a negative answer.
This works fine on almost all inputs, and comes out pretty fast when i try it on my system, but always gives TLE on the programming-challenges website.
the code is here
Code: Select all
#include <iostream.h>
#include <math.h>
long gcd (long p,long q)
{
if (q == 0) return p;
else return (gcd (q, p%q));
}
bool isprime (long n)
{
for (int i = 3; i<=sqrt(n)+1 ; i+=2)
{
if (n%i == 0) {return (false);}
}
return (true);
}
int main()
{
do{
long n,m,saven, savem;
cin >>n>> m;
saven = n; savem = m;
bool flag = false;
int counter= 0; //prime check
if (n == 0 && m == 1) {flag = true;goto End;}
if (n==0 && m>1) {flag = false;goto End;}
if (m == 0) {flag = false;goto End;}
// to c if m divides n!62454TK
while ( n >= 1 && m >= 1)
{
if (m <= n) { flag = true; goto End;}
long g = gcd (m,n);
if (g==1) { counter++; if (counter == 50)
{ if (isprime (m)) {flag = false;break;}}
}
else counter = 0;
m = m/g; n = (n - 1)*(n/g);
//cout << "n =" << n << " m = " << m << endl; //int x ; cin >> x;
if (m == 1) { flag = true; break; }
}
End:
if (flag == true) cout << savem <<" divides " << saven<<"!";
else cout << savem <<" does not divide " << saven<<"!";
cout << endl;
} while (true);
return (0);
}
Can u plz suggest a better algo to solve this problem. I have tried looking my Number Theory books, but am still in the dark regarding this problem. I would be really grateful if u could help me out.
Thanks,
CJ

I think it's the endless loop that gives you TLE.
But is there an end condition?
Posted: Mon May 30, 2005 2:56 pm
by CodeJerk
The question doesnt specify any end condition, like, for e.g., that the last input is 0 0, which is *not* to be processed.
If u got AC could you plz tell me what was the end condition u specified.
Thanks in advance.

Read until you hit EOF.Something along the line of...
Code: Select all
while ( 2 == scanf("%d %d", &a, &b) ) {
}

Never mind it. Found the bug.

Thanks a lot.There was a silly mistake in my code and the test case 94764610 284293833 helped me finding that.

You can get the prime factors of the m and n (from two to n since it is n!) numbers and keep dividing out the prime factors from m until no more prime factors remain in m (return true) or until you reach n (return false).
I would not do it with BigInteger though because it seems the judge does not accept the BigInteger class. I got a compile error before on the Square root problem when I tried to use BigInteger, so I had to write my own BigInteger class.
