Count rotations divisible by 4

Difficulty Level : Easy
Last Updated : 18 Jul, 2018

Given a large positive number as string, count all rotations of the given number which are divisible by 4.

Examples:

Input: 8
Output: 1

Input: 20
Output: 1
Rotation: 20 is divisible by 4
          02 is not divisible by 4

Input : 13502
Output : 0
No rotation is divisible by 4

Input : 43292816
Output : 5
5 rotations are : 43292816, 16432928, 81643292
                  92816432, 32928164

For large numbers it is difficult to rotate and divide each number by 4. Therefore, ‘divisibility by 4’ property is used which says that a number is divisible by 4 if the last 2 digits of the number is divisible by 4. Here we do not actually rotate the number and check last 2 digits for divisibility, instead we count consecutive pairs (in circular way) which are divisible by 4.

Illustration:

Consider a number 928160
Its rotations are 928160, 092816, 609281, 160928, 
    816092, 281609.
Now form pairs from the original number 928160
as mentioned in the approach.
Pairs: (9,2), (2,8), (8,1), (1,6), 
         (6,0), (0,9)
We can observe that the 2-digit number formed by the these 
pairs, i.e., 92, 28, 81, 16, 60, 09, are present in the last
2 digits of some rotation.
Thus, checking divisibility of these pairs gives the required
number of rotations. 

Note: A single digit number can directly
be checked for divisibility.

Below is the implementation of the approach.

C++

// C++ program to count all rotation divisible 
// by 4. 
#include <bits/stdc++.h> 
using namespace std; 
  
// Returns count of all rotations divisible 
// by 4 
int countRotations(string n) 
{ 
    int len = n.length(); 
  
    // For single digit number 
    if (len == 1) 
    { 
        int oneDigit = n.at(0)-'0'; 
        if (oneDigit%4 == 0) 
            return 1; 
        return 0; 
    } 
  
    // At-least 2 digit number (considering all 
    // pairs) 
    int twoDigit, count = 0; 
    for (int i=0; i<(len-1); i++) 
    { 
        twoDigit = (n.at(i)-'0')*10 + (n.at(i+1)-'0'); 
        if (twoDigit%4 == 0) 
            count++; 
    } 
  
    // Considering the number formed by the pair of 
    // last digit and 1st digit 
    twoDigit = (n.at(len-1)-'0')*10 + (n.at(0)-'0'); 
    if (twoDigit%4 == 0) 
        count++; 
  
    return count; 
} 
  
//Driver program 
int main() 
{ 
    string n = "4834"; 
    cout << "Rotations: " << countRotations(n) << endl; 
    return 0; 
}

          int oneDigit = n.charAt(0)-'0'; 
  
          if (oneDigit % 4 == 0) 
              return 1; 
  
          return 0;
