Re: Problem 360

I googled and fixed my calculations. I got S(45)=34518

And number of points is 510.

v6ph1, I understand your answer now, not to give the others to much hints. :)

Re: Problem 317

Hi japp, My initial question in the forum "Clarifications on Project Euler Problems" was What approximate value of $\pi$ should be used? The answer must be a number, for example $3.14$. v6ph1's initial answer was You need 4 decimals in your solution. - So if you append the next digit of pi...

Re: Problem 317

What approximate value of $\pi$ should be used? You need 4 decimals in your solution. - So if you append the next digit of pi, the solution should not change at all. I solved the problem. :) v6ph1, Your suggestion to use 5 decimals in calculations gives an incorrect result . The difference from the...

Re: Problem 317

OK. Cylinder is very rough maximum approximation. The real volume is much less than the volume of the cylinder. I agree with you, v6ph1. My results are still not accepted :( What angle increment $1^o$ or $0.5^o$ should I use in my calculations? This is the important question because an answer to it ...

Re: Problem 317

formula $h = Y_{max}=H+\frac{V_0^2}{2g}$

exact result is $120.3874m$

Re: Problem 317

I submit many answers but they were not accepted. So I did approximation of covered area as cylinder with height $h=Ymax=120m$ and radius $r=X_{max}=100m$ $Volume_{cylinder}=\pi*r^2*h$ Volume of cylinder . So the answer can not exceed $3,769,911.1843 m^3$ Could someone PM me to verify my approach to...

Re: Problem 058

I modified code from Problem 28 (Number spiral diagonals) to go counterclockwise and applied to primes.
I have the answer where a side is below 700 and it is not accepted. Any hints to verify what I am doing wrong in my algorithm?
Thanks.

Re: Problem 066

Well, if you look up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diophantine_equation and look at "Examples of Diophantine Equations" it's there, isn't it? (third example). What it boils down to is that people are supposed to do this bit of research by themselves and find out what it is about. The meta ...

Re: Problem 549

It is impossible to solve this problem by calculating the most factorials directly. My approach to find the number of common divisors for the smallest divisor and factorial. I used Legendre's Theorem to do the trick for factorials. My program runs quickly and correctly for n = 100. I improved proces...
