Batman is an atypical "superhero". Unlike Spider-man, Batman has no special powers (unless you count being filthy rich a superpower). That said, he is, for better or worse, greatly respected for being a crime-fighter by his many fans. Despite his dour demeanor, Batman at times displays moments of humor and periodically manifests his modest intellect.
In this programming challenge, Batman is locked in a battle of wits with the Riddler. Once again, the green supervillain has a mind-bending, brain-teasing challenge for the masked avenger:
Find all the pairs of
5
-digit numbers that use the digits0
through9
once each, such that the first number divided by the second is equal to some integerN
, whereN
is between2
and100
(inclusive).
That is, given the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
and a number N
,
find all permutations of these digits such that:
abcde / fghij = N
where each letter represents a different digit. The first digit of one of
the numerals is allowed to be 0
.
Because Batman lacks any significant superpower (besides money), he begs that you help him defeat the Riddler by using your programming superpowers.
Each line of input consists of a valid integer N
. An input of 0
terminates the program (no output should be displayed for it).
61
62
0
The program should display ALL pairs of numerals that match the description above. The numerators should be sorted by increasing numerator and denominator and displayed in the following format:
XXXXX / XXXXX = N
XXXXX / XXXXX = N
...
If there are no pairs of numerals satisfying the atypical division condition, then the program should display: "There are no solutions for N".
Separate the output for two different values of N
by a blank line.
There are no solutions for 61.
79546 / 01283 = 62
94736 / 01528 = 62
This is based on the Division problem on the UVa Online Judge.
