PAT_A1069#The Black Hole of Numbers
Source:
Description:
For any 4-digit integer except the ones with all the digits being the same, if we sort the digits in non-increasing order first, and then in non-decreasing order, a new number can be obtained by taking the second number from the first one. Repeat in this manner we will soon end up at the number
6174
-- the black hole of 4-digit numbers. This number is named Kaprekar Constant.For example, start from
6767
, we'll get:7766 - 6677 = 1089 9810 - 0189 = 9621 9621 - 1269 = 8352 8532 - 2358 = 6174 7641 - 1467 = 6174 ... ...
Given any 4-digit number, you are supposed to illustrate the way it gets into the black hole.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case which gives a positive integer N in the range (.
Output Specification:
If all the 4 digits of N are the same, print in one line the equation
N - N = 0000
. Else print each step of calculation in a line until6174
comes out as the difference. All the numbers must be printed as 4-digit numbers.
Sample Input 1:
6767
Sample Output 1:
7766 - 6677 = 1089 9810 - 0189 = 9621 9621 - 1269 = 8352 8532 - 2358 = 6174
Sample Input 2:
2222
Sample Output 2:
2222 - 2222 = 0000

Attention:
- 早期的PAT考试更注重算法的效率(过于依赖容器会超时),而现在的PAT考试更注重解决问题的能力(强调容器的使用)
- to_string()会超时
