Given a large positive number as string, count all rotations of the given number which are divisible by 8.

Examples: 

Input: 8
Output: 1

Input: 40
Output: 1
Rotation: 40 is divisible by 8
          04 is not divisible by 8

Input : 13502
Output : 0
No rotation is divisible by 8

Input : 43262488612
Output : 4

Approach: For large numbers it is difficult to rotate and divide each number by 8. Therefore, ‘divisibility by 8’ property is used which says that a number is divisible by 8 if the last 3 digits of the number is divisible by 8. Here we do not actually rotate the number and check last 8 digits for divisibility, instead we count consecutive sequence of 3 digits (in circular way) which are divisible by 8.

Illustration:  

Consider a number 928160
Its rotations are 928160, 092816, 609281, 
160928, 816092, 281609.
Now form consecutive sequence of 3-digits from 
the original number 928160 as mentioned in the 
approach. 
3-digit: (9, 2, 8), (2, 8, 1), (8, 1, 6), 
(1, 6, 0),(6, 0, 9), (0, 9, 2)
We can observe that the 3-digit number formed by 
the these sets, i.e., 928, 281, 816, 160, 609, 092, 
are present in the last 3 digits of some rotation.
Thus, checking divisibility of these 3-digit numbers
gives the required number of rotations.

                 int(n[0]))
    if (threeDigit % 8 == 0):

    n = "43262488612"
    print("Rotations:",countRotationsDivBy8(n))

Output: 

Rotations: 4

Time Complexity : O(n), where n is the number of digits in input number.
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
