A n digit number x is called Keith number if it appears in a special sequence (defined below) generated using its digits. The special sequence has first n terms as digits of x and other terms are recursively evaluated as sum of previous n terms.
The task is to find if a given number is Keith Number or not.
Examples: 
 

Input : x = 197
Output : Yes
197 has 3 digits, so n = 3
The number is Keith because it appears in the special
sequence that has first three terms as 1, 9, 7 and 
remaining terms evaluated using sum of previous 3 terms.
1, 9, 7, 17, 33, 57, 107, 197, .....

Input : x = 12
Output : No
The number is not Keith because it doesn't appear in
the special sequence generated using its digits.
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, .....

Input : x = 14
Output : Yes
14 is a Keith number since it appears in the sequence,
1, 4, 5, 9, 14, ...

 

Recommended Practice

Algorithm: 
 

  1. Store the ‘n’ digits of given number “x” in an array “terms”.
  2. Loop for generating next terms of sequence and adding the previous ‘n’ terms.
  3. Keep storing the next_terms from step 2 in array “terms”.
  4. If the next term becomes equal to x, then x is a Keith number. If next term becomes more than x, then x is not a Keith Number.

    // Also find number of digits and store in "n".

    int temp = x, n = 0; // n is number of digits in x
    while (temp > 0)
    {
        terms.push_back(temp%10);
        temp = temp/10;
        n++;
    }
  
    // To get digits in right order (from MSB to
    // LSB)
    reverse(terms.begin(), terms.end());
  
    // Keep finding next terms of a sequence generated
    // using digits of x until we either reach x or a
    // number greater than x

    while (next_term < x)

        next_term = 0;

Output: 

Yes
No
Yes
