Check if a number can be expressed as x^y (x raised to power y)
Given a positive integer n, find if it can be expressed as x^y where y > 1 and x > 0. x and y both are integers.
Examples :
Input: n = 8 Output: true 8 can be expressed as 2^3 Input: n = 49 Output: true 49 can be expressed as 7^2 Input: n = 48 Output: false 48 can't be expressed as x^y
We have discussed two different approaches in below post.
Check if a number can be expressed as x^y (x raised to power y).
The idea is find Log n in different bases from 2 to square root of n. If Log n for a base becomes integer then result is true, else result is false.
C++
// CPP program to find if a number // can be expressed as x raised to // power y. #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std;
bool isPower(unsigned int n)
{ // Find Log n in different bases
// and check if the value is an
// integer
for ( int x=2; x<= sqrt (n); x++) {
float f = log (n) / log (x);
if ((f - ( int )f) == 0.0)
return true ;
}
return false ;
} // Driver code int main()
{ for ( int i = 2; i < 100; i++)
if (isPower(i))
cout << i << " " ;
return 0;

Java
// Java program to find if a number // can be expressed as x raised to // power y. class GFG {
static boolean isPower( int n)
{
// Find Log n in different
// bases and check if the
// value is an integer
for ( int x = 2 ; x <=
( int )Math.sqrt(n); x++)
{
float f = ( float )Math.log(n) /
( float ) Math.log(x);
if ((f - ( int )f) == 0.0 )
return true ;
}
return false ;
}
// Driver code
public static void main(String args[])
{
for ( int i = 2 ; i < 100 ; i++)
if (isPower(i))
System.out.print( i + " " );

Python3

for x in range ( 2 , int (math.sqrt(n)) + 1 ):
f = math.log(n) / math.log(x);
if ((f - int (f)) = = 0.0 ):
return True ;
return False ;
# Driver code for i in range ( 2 , 100 ):

Output:
4 8 9 16 25 27 32 36 49 64 81
Time Complexity : O(sqrt(N))
Auxiliary Space : O(1) ,as we are not using any extra space
