  • Number letter counts

    From the Project Euler Problem 17: If the numbers 1 to 5 are written out in words: one, two, three, four, five, then there are 3 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 4 = 19 letters used in total. If all the numbers from 1 to 1000 (one thousand) inclusive were written out in…

  • Power digit sum

    From the Project Euler Problem 16: 2^15 = 32768 and the sum of its digits is 3 + 2 + 7 + 6 + 8 = 26. What is the sum of the digits of the number 2^1000? checked

  • Lattice paths

    From the Project Euler Problem 15: Starting in the top left corner of a 2×2 grid, and only being able to move to the right and down, there are exactly 6 routes to the bottom right corner. How many such routes are there through a 20×20 grid? checked In the first attempt I counted all…

  • Longest Collatz sequence

    From the Project Euler Problem 14: The following iterative sequence is defined for the set of positive integers: n → n/2 (n is even) n → 3n + 1 (n is odd) Using the rule above and starting with 13, we generate the following sequence: 13 → 40 → 20 → 10 → 5 →…

  • Large sum

    From the Project Euler Problem 13: Work out the first ten digits of the sum of the following one-hundred 50-digit numbers.

  • Highly divisible triangular number

    From the Project Euler Problem 12: The sequence of triangle numbers is generated by adding the natural numbers. So the 7th triangle number would be 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 28. The first ten terms would be: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45,…

  • Largest product in a grid

    From the Project Euler Problem 11: In the 20×20 grid below, four numbers along a diagonal line have been marked in red. 08 02 22 97 38 15 00 40 00 75 04 05 07 78 52 12 50 77 91 08 49 49 99 40 17 81 18 57 60 87 17 40 98…

  • Summation of primes

    From the Project Euler Problem 10: The sum of the primes below 10 is 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 17. Find the sum of all the primes below two million. checked A processor Intel® Core™ i7-2720QM CPU @ 2.20GHz × 8 takes about 6 minutes to complete this calculation.

  • Project Euler – Problem 9

    From the Project Euler Problem 9: A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, a b c, for which, a2 + b2 = c2 For example, 32 + 42 = 9 + 16 = 25 = 52. There exists exactly one Pythagorean triplet for which a + b + c = 1000. Find…

  • Project Euler – Problem 8

    From the Project Euler Problem 8:Find the greatest product of five consecutive digits in the 1000-digit number. 7316717653133062491922511967442657474235534919493496983520312774506326239578318016984801869478851843858615607891129494954595017379583319528532088055111254069874715852386305071569329096329522744304355766896648950445244523161731856403098711121722383113622298934233803081353362766142828064444866452387493035890729629049156044077239071381051585930796086670172427121883998797908792274921901699720888093776657273330010533678812202354218097512545405947522435258490771167055601360483958644670632441572215539753697817977846174064955149290862569321978468622482839722413756570560574902614079729686524145351004748216637048440319989000889524345065854122758866688116427171479924442928230863465674813919123162824586178664583591245665294765456828489128831426076900422421902267105562632111110937054421750694165896040807198403850962455444362981230987879927244284909188845801561660979191338754992005240636899125607176060588611646710940507754100225698315520005593572972571636269561882670428252483600823257530420752963450 checked I wrote the digits in a file, I read the file and I set an ArrayList<Character>…
