
As a CS student, it’s not enough to just know
how to use those high-precision integer
libraries.
It’s better to know how to design and
implement a high-precision integer arithmetic
library.

Review of Number Systems

Positional notation using base b (or radix b) is
defined by the rule:
Radix Point
(…a3a2a1a0.a-1a-2…)b
= …+a3b3+a2b2+a1b1+a0+a-1b-1+a-2b-2+…
Binary number system: b = 2


Decimal number system: b = 10


2 digits: 0 and 1
10 digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, …, 9
Hexadecimal number system: b = 16

16 digits: 0, 1, 2, …, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F

How to represent enormous integers?

Arrays of digits
 The initial element of the array represents the least
significant digits:

An integer 1234567890 is stored as an array:
{0, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1}
Maintain a counter for the number of digits
 Maintain the sign of the integer: positive or negative?
Linked list of digits
 It can support real arbitrary precision arithmetic
 But:


Waste of memory (each node takes a pointer)
The performance is not as good as arrays

An Example: Using Array
http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/~chxw/pig/code/bignum.c
#define MAXDIGITS 100
/*maximum length bignum */
#define PLUS 1
/* positive sign bit */
#define MINUS -1
/* negative sign bit */
typedef struct {
char digits[MAXDIGITS];
/* represent the number */
int signbit;
/* PLUS or MINUS */
int lastdigit;
/* index of high-order digit */
} bignum;
Remarks:
1. Each digit (0-9) is represented using a single-byte character.
2. In fact, using higher numerical bases (e.g., 64, 128, 256) is more efficient.

Practice I: Primary Arithmetic



http://acm.uva.es/p/v100/10035.html
Children are taught to add multi-digit numbers from right-toleft one digit at a time. Many find the "carry" operation - in
which a 1 is carried from one digit position to be added to
the next - to be a significant challenge. Your job is to count
the number of carry operations for each of a set of addition
problems so that educators may assess their difficulty.
Input


Each line of input contains two unsigned integers less than 10
digits. The last line of input contains 0 0.
Output

For each line of input except the last you should compute and
print the number of carry operations that would result from adding
the two numbers, in the format shown below.
24

Sample Input
123 456

Sample Output
No carry operation.
3 carry operations.

Hint:
Use an array of characters to
store the digits of an integer

Practice II: Reverse and Add



http://acm.uva.es/p/v100/10018.html
The "reverse and add" method is simple: choose a number, reverse its
digits and add it to the original. If the sum is not a palindrome (which
means, it is not the same number from left to right and right to left),
repeat this procedure.
For example:
In this particular case the
195 Initial number
palindrome 9339 appeared after
591
----the 4th addition.
786
687
This method leads to palindromes
----in a few step for almost all of the
1473
integers. But there are interesting
3741
----exceptions. 196 is the first number
5214
for which no palindrome has been
4125
found. It is not proven though, that
----there is no such a palindrome.
9339 Resulting palindrome
26
Practice II: Reverse and Add

Task :
You must write a program that gives the resulting palindrome and the
number of iterations (additions) to compute the palindrome.

You might assume that all tests data on this problem:
- will have an answer ,
- will be computable with less than 1000 iterations (additions),
- will yield a palindrome that is not greater than 4,294,967,295.

The Input


The first line will have a number N with the number of test cases, the next N lines
will have a number P to compute its palindrome.
The Output

For each of the N tests you will have to write a line with the following data :
minimum number of iterations (additions) to get to the palindrome and the
resulting palindrome itself separated by one space.

Practice III: Archeologist’s
Dilemma


http://acm.uva.es/p/v7/701.html
An archeologist seeking proof of the presence of extraterrestrials in the
Earth's past, stumbles upon a partially destroyed wall containing strange
chains of numbers.
The left-hand part of these lines of digits is always intact, but unfortunately
the right-hand one is often lost by erosion of the stone. However, she
notices that all the numbers with all its digits intact are powers of 2, so that
the hypothesis that all of them are powers of 2 is obvious.
To reinforce her belief, she selects a list of numbers on which it is apparent
that the number of legible digits is strictly smaller than the number of lost
ones, and asks you to find the smallest power of 2 (if any) whose first digits
coincide with those of the list.
Thus you must write a program such that given an integer, it determines (if it
exists) the smallest exponent E such that the first digits of 2E coincide with
the integer (remember that more than half of the digits are missing).
29
Practice III: Archeologist’s
Dilemma

Input


It is a set of lines with a positive integer N not bigger than
2147483648 in each of them.
Output

For every one of these integers a line containing the
smallest positive integer E such that the first digits of 2E are
precisely the digits of N, or, if there is no one, the sentence
``no power of 2".

Analysis of the problem



The legible digits form a number N
Assume there are k missing digits
The we have the following inequalities:


We perform the lg() operation:



Nx10k <= 2E < (N+1)x10k
lg(Nx10k) <= lg(2E) < lg ((N+1)x10k), which leads to
lgN + klg10 <= E < lg(N+1) + klg10
We can search for the k such that, there is an
integer in the middle
