10680 - LCM

[htl]

Do I have to make a table by precalculating? I only consider the last digit of every primes less than 1000000 and the times of 2 and 5. I use the cycle of last digit to reduce the work. But I do calculating every time encountering a new number and get TLE. How do I boost my program?

[rakeb]

try to make a table. think in this way ---
if you know last digit of lcm(1...N) then you can aslo calculate last digit of lcm(1.....(N+1)).

Thanks for rakeb's hint. I solved it in less than 0.4sec.

To abishek:
Let's make a table[1000000], then you might find out that if N is not a power of a prime, table[N] would equal to table[N-1], or you have to find out the answer. You can do some precalculating to reduce the time to do this. And be carefully to the power of 2 and 5, they could make trailing 0's and it would not affect the last non-zero digit.

Process of finding the LCM of two numbers :

Prime Factorize the two numbers and let
A = 2^a1 * 3^a2 * 5^a3 * .....
B = 2^b1 * 3^b2 * 5^b3 * .....

Then the LCM of the two numbers =
2^max(a1, b1) * 3^max(a2,b2) * 5^max(a3, b3) * ......

So if you know the LCM ( for that matter the last digit ) of 1 to N,
then the last digit of 1 to (N+1) is found by prime factorzing (N+1) and seeing whether any power of prime ( of N + 1) exceeds the previous highest power of the same prime.
The trick is if (N+1) is a power of prime then only will it make any effect.

Eg: if N+1 == 8 ( which is a power of prime - 2^3) then you know that there is no number less than 8 that has a prime fact. of 2^3 or more.
and you also know that 2^2 (3 - 1 = 2) is in the list of 1 to 7..
so multiplying the current lcm ( 1 to 7) with 2 will give you the lcm of
1 -- 8. and so on..

btw you have to mod the lcm every time with 1000000 to ensure no overflow occurs... this method took .334 s to get AC.
