Given a number n, find the sum of digits of n when represented in different bases from 2 to n-1.
Examples: 
 

Input : 5
Output : 2 3 2
Representation of 5 is 101, 12, 11 in bases 2 , 3 , 4 .

Input : 7
Output : 3 3 4 3 2

 

 

  1. As the given question wants the sum of digits in different bases, first we have to calculate the given number of different bases and add each digit to the number of different bases.
  2. So, to calculate each number’s representation we will take the mod of given number by the base in which we want to represent that number.
  3. Then, we have to add all those mod values as the mod values obtained will represent that number in that base.
  4. Finally, the sum of those mod values gives the sum of digits of that number.

Below are implementations of this approach
 

 

C++




// CPP program to find sum of digits of
// n in different bases from 2 to n-1.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// function to calculate sum of
// digit for a given base
int solve(int n, int base)
{
    // Sum of digits
    int result = 0 ;
     
    // Calculating the number (n) by
    // taking mod with the base and adding
    // remainder to the result and
    // parallelly reducing the num value .
    while (n > 0)
    {
        int remainder = n % base ;
        result = result + remainder ;
        n = n / base;
    }
     
    // returning the result
    return result ;
}
 
void printSumsOfDigits(int n)
{
    // function calling for multiple bases
    for (int base = 2 ; base < n ; ++base)   
        cout << solve(n, base) <<" ";
}
 
// Driver program
int main()
{
    int n = 8;
    printSumsOfDigits(n);
    return 0;
}
