Count numbers from range whose prime factors are only 2 and 3 using Arrays | Set 2

Given two positive integers L and R, the task is to count the elements from the range [L, R] whose prime factors are only 2 and 3.
Examples: 
 

Input: L = 1, R = 10 
Output:
Explanation: 
2 = 2 
3 = 3 
4 = 2 * 2 
6 = 2 * 3 
8 = 2 * 2 * 2 
9 = 3 * 3
Input: L = 100, R = 200 
Output:

To solve the problem in an optimized way, follow the steps given below: 
 

Below is the implementation of above approach:

// in the range [L, R] whose prime
// factors are only 2 and 3.
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
#define ll long long int
 
// Function which will calculate the
// elements in the given range
void calc_ans(ll l, ll r)
{
 
    vector<ll> power2, power3;
 
    // Store the current power of 2
    ll mul2 = 1;
    while (mul2 <= r) {
        power2.push_back(mul2);
        mul2 *= 2;
    }
 
    // Store the current power of 3
    ll mul3 = 1;
    while (mul3 <= r) {
        power3.push_back(mul3);
        mul3 *= 3;
    }
 
    // power23[] will store pairwise product of
    // elements of power2 and power3 that are <=r
    vector<ll> power23;
 
    for (int x = 0; x < power2.size(); x++) {
        for (int y = 0; y < power3.size(); y++) {
 
            ll mul = power2[x] * power3[y];
            if (mul == 1)
                continue;
 
            // Insert in power23][]
            // only if mul<=r
            if (mul <= r)
                power23.push_back(mul);
        }

Output: 
6

 

Time Complexity: O(log2(R) * log3(R)), as we are traversing in nested loops where we increment in multiple of 2 and 3.

Auxiliary Space: O(log2(R) * log3(R)), as we are using extra space.
Note: The approach can be further optimized. After storing powers of 2 and 3, the answer can be calculated using two pointers instead of generating all the numbers
