Count Distinct Non-Negative Integer Pairs (x, y) that Satisfy the Inequality x*x + y*y < n

Given a positive number n, count all distinct Non-Negative Integer pairs (x, y) that satisfy the inequality x*x + y*y < n. 

Examples:

Input:  n = 5
Output: 6
The pairs are (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1), (2, 0), (0, 2)

Input: n = 6
Output: 8
The pairs are (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1), (2, 0), (0, 2),
              (1, 2), (2, 1)

A Simple Solution is to run two loops. The outer loop goes for all possible values of x (from 0 to ?n). The inner loops pick all possible values of y for the current value of x (picked by outer loop). 

Following is the implementation of a simple solution. 

C++

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// This function counts number of pairs (x, y) that satisfy
// the inequality x*x + y*y < n.
int countSolutions(int n)
{
   int res = 0;
   for (int x = 0; x*x < n; x++)
      for (int y = 0; x*x + y*y < n; y++)
         res++;
   return res;
}

// Driver program to test above function
int main()
{
    cout << "Total Number of distinct Non-Negative pairs is "
         << countSolutions(6) << endl;
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java code to Count Distinct
// Non-Negative Integer Pairs
// (x, y) that Satisfy the
// inequality x*x + y*y < n
import java.io.*;

class GFG
{
    // This function counts number
    // of pairs (x, y) that satisfy
    // the inequality x*x + y*y < n.
    static int countSolutions(int n)
    {
        int res = 0;
        for (int x = 0; x * x < n; x++)
            for (int y = 0; x * x + y * y < n; y++)
                res++;

        return res;
    }

    // Driver program
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        System.out.println ( "Total Number of distinct Non-Negative pairs is "
                                                        +countSolutions(6));

    }
}

An upper bound for the time complexity of the above solution is O(n). The outer loop runs ?n times. The inner loop runs at most ?n times. 

Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Using an Efficient Solution, we can find the count in O(?n) time. The idea is to first find the count of all y values corresponding to the 0 value of x. Let count of distinct y values be yCount. We can find yCount by running a loop and comparing yCount*yCount with n. 
After we have the initial yCount, we can one by one increase the value of x and find the next value of yCount by reducing yCount.

Output: 

Total Number of distinct Non-Negative pairs is 8

Time Complexity of the above solution seems more but if we take a closer look, we can see that it is O(?n). In every step inside the inner loop, the value of yCount is decremented by 1. The value yCount can decrement at most O(?n) times as yCount is counted y values for x = 0. In the outer loop, the value of x is incremented. The value of x can also increment at most O(?n) times as the last x is for yCount equals 1.
