Euler 021 c++ Solution

Amicable numbers

Problem

https:projecteuler.net/problem=21

Let d(n) be defined as the sum of proper divisors of n (numbers less than n which divide evenly into n). If d(a) = b and d(b) = a, where a ≠ b, then a and b are an amicable pair and each of a and b are called amicable numbers.

For example, the proper divisors of 220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55 and 110; therefore d(220) = 284. The proper divisors of 284 are 1, 2, 4, 71 and 142; so d(284) = 220.

Evaluate the sum of all the amicable numbers under 10000.

Answer: 31626

Solution

euler021.cpp

#include <iostream>

int amicable_numbers_sum(int max)
{
  int a = 0;
  int b = 0;
  int amic_sum = 0;

  for( int i = 1; i < max ;i++){

    a = 0;
    for(int j = 1 ; j < i ; j++){
      if( 0 == (i%j)){
        a += j;
      }
    }

    b = 0;
    for( int k = 1 ; k < a ; k++ ){
      if( 0 == (a%k)){
        b += k;
      }
    }

    if( b == i && b != a ){
      amic_sum += i;
    }
  }

  return amic_sum;
}


#if ! defined UNITTEST_MODE
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
  std::cout << "Answer: " << amicable_numbers_sum(10000) << std::endl;
}
#endif //#if ! defined UNITTEST_MODE
