Project Euler > Problem 76 > Counting summations (Java Solution)

Problem:

It is possible to write five as a sum in exactly six different ways:

4 + 1
3 + 2
3 + 1 + 1
2 + 2 + 1
2 + 1 + 1 + 1
1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1

How many different ways can one hundred be written as a sum of at least two positive integers?


Solution:

983

Code:
The solution may include methods that will be found here: Library.java .

public interface EulerSolution{

public String run();

}

import java.util.HashMap;

public final class p026 implements EulerSolution {

public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(new p026().run());
}


public String run() {
int bestNumber = 0;
int bestLength = 0;
for (int i = 1; i <= 1000; i++) {
int len = getCycleLength(i);
if (len > bestLength) {
bestNumber = i;
bestLength = len;
}
}
return Integer.toString(bestNumber);
}


private static int getCycleLength(int n) {
Map<Integer,Integer> stateToIter = new HashMap<Integer,Integer>();
int state = 1;
int iter = 0;
while (!stateToIter.containsKey(state)) {
stateToIter.put(state, iter);
state = state * 10 % n;
iter++;
}
return iter - stateToIter.get(state);
}

}
