Keith Number - GeeksforGeeks

A n digit number x is called Keith number if it appears in a special sequence (defined below) generated using its digits. The special sequence has first n terms as digits of x and other terms are recursively evaluated as sum of previous n terms.

The task is to find if a given number is Keith Number or not.

Examples:

Input : x = 197
Output : Yes
197 has 3 digits, so n = 3
The number is Keith because it appears in the special
sequence that has first three terms as 1, 9, 7 and 
remaining terms evaluated using sum of previous 3 terms.
1, 9, 7, 17, 33, 57, 107, 197, .....

Input : x = 12
Output : No
The number is not Keith because it doesn't appear in
the special sequence generated using its digits.
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, .....

Input : x = 14
Output : Yes
14 is a Keith number since it appears in the sequence,
1, 4, 5, 9, 14, ...

Recommended: Please solve it on “PRACTICE” first, before moving on to the solution.

Algorithm:

Store the ‘n’ digits of given number “x” in an array “terms”.
Loop for generating next terms of sequence and adding the previous ‘n’ terms.
Keep storing the next_terms from step 2 in array “terms”.
If the next term becomes equal to x, then x is a Keith number. If next term becomes more than x, then x is not a Keith Number.
