C++ program to check a Peterson number

C++ program to check a Peterson number


In this chapter of C++ program tutorial out task is: 

  • write a c++ program to check whether a number is peterson number or not

C++ program to check a number is Peterson number or not

Below is the C++ program to check if a number is Peterson number or not.

/*  Program Name : To check whether a number is Peterson or not
    Program Author : Sayantan Bose
*/

#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
using namespace std;

//This function will return the sum of the factorials of each digit of the inputed number.
int peter(int num)
{
    int r,sum=0,f=1,i;

    while(num!=0)
    {
        r=num%10;
        for(i=1;i<=r;i++)
        f=f*i;
        sum=sum+f;
        f=1;
        num=num/10;

    }
    return sum;
}

// This is the main function

int main() {

int num,sum=0;
 cout<<"Enter any number to check Peterson:\n";
   cin>>num;
    int new_num;
    new_num=num;
 sum=peter(num);
  if(sum==new_num)
        cout<<num<<" is a Peterson number";
    else
        cout<<num<< " is not a Peterson number";

	return 0;
}


OUTPUT
Enter the number to check Peterson:
145
145 is an Peterson number
Or
Enter the number to check Peterson:
53
53 is not an Peterson number
 
 
EXPLANATION :
In the above c++ program to check if a number is Peterson or not:
  • A number is said to be Peterson if and only if the sum of the factorial of each digit of the number is equal to the number itself.
  • For example: 145 is a Peterson number. Because 145 can be written as the sum of 1!+4!+5!, is equal to 145 which is the number itself.
  • In the method peter, we are calculating the sum of the factorial of each digit of the number . And then the sum is returned to the main method.
  • In the main method the sum is then compared with the original number provided as input.
  • If both of them turn out to be equal the number is a Peterson number else it isn't.
