Count numbers < = N whose difference with the count of primes upto them is > = K

Given two positive integers N and K, the task is to count all the numbers that satisfy the following conditions: 
If the number is num
 

Examples: 
 



Input: N = 10, K = 3 
Output:
6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 are the valid numbers. For 6, the difference between 6 and prime numbers upto 6 (2, 3, 5) is 3 i.e. 6 – 3 = 3. For 7, 8, 9 and 10 the differences are 3, 4, 5 and 6 respectively which are ? K.
Input: N = 30, K = 13 
Output: 10 
 

 



Prerequisite: Binary Search
Approach: Observe that the function which is the difference of the number and count of prime numbers upto that number is a monotonically increasing function for a particular K. Also, if a number X is a valid number then X + 1 will also be a valid number. 
Proof : 
 

Let the function Ci denotes the count of prime numbers upto number i. Now, 
for the number X + 1 the difference is X + 1 – CX + 1 which is greater than 
or equal to the difference X – CX for the number X, i.e. (X + 1 – CX + 1) ? (X – CX). 
Thus, if (X – CX) ? S, then (X + 1 – CX + 1) ? S. 
 

Hence, we can use binary search to find the minimum valid number X and all the numbers from X to N will be valid numbers. So, the answer would be N – X + 1.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
