What to Do<\/h2>\n
Your jobs is to create a program that asks the user for two pieces of data:<\/p>\n
\n
The lower bound of the sequence<\/li>\n
The upper bound of the sequence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Then you check the values from the lower bound (inclusive) to the upper bound (inclusive) and make a report of them. During the analysis of each number, if a Lychrel number is found it should be reported immediately with something like “Found a Lychrel number: 196”<\/div>\n
Details<\/h2>\n
The report must show:<\/div>\n
\n
\n
The range of numbers analysed (lower to upper bound)<\/li>\n
The number of natural palindromes (no addition to inverse needed)<\/li>\n
The number of non-Lycherels encountered (become palindromes)<\/li>\n
The number of Lycherel number candidates (that did not converge to palindrome)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
Since you will not be able to prove that a number is Lycherel (since you cannot computer forever to check), our definition for a Lycherel candidate will be if a number does not converge after 30 iterations of applying the addition to the inverse.<\/p>\n
To get this working well, you will need support for Big Integers. You can base your solution off my codebase on GitHub<\/a>. Unzip all of the files in a directory and use the command “make” to compile. Run the executable.<\/p>\n
Another option for supporting large integers is the GNU MP Bignum Library<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Remember to put the tag #WSQ11 on your post so our blog hub picks that up.<\/p>\nYou should include your code as a link to GitHub. You really should start using your GitHub repository now. If you need help on that, just ask Ken or your classmates.<\/p>\nAnd of course, leave any questions here as well as asking those questions on Twitter with the hashtag #TC1017 so we all see your question posted there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Background Lychrel numbers are natural numbers that do not form a palindrome after successive additions to their inverse.
