Multiplication of Digits

Last Updated on March 30, 2022 by Ria Pathak

CONCEPTS USED:

Recursion

DIFFICULTY LEVEL:

Easy

PROBLEM STATEMENT(SIMPLIFIED):

Given an integer N, recursively find the multiplication of digits of N modulus with 10^9+7.

See original problem statement here

For Example:

Input : N = 125

Output : 10

Explanation : 1 * 2 * 5 = 10 (Multiplication of all digits of 125)

SOLVING APPROACH:

The idea is quite simple :-

Recursively keep multiplying N / 10 with N % 10 until the value of N becomes equal to 0.

ALGORITHM:

multiply (N)
  if (N is less than equal to 0)
    return 1
  else
    return (N % 10) * multiply (N/10)

Why is it required to modulo with 109+7 ?

As the digits are multiplied, the result may exceed even the maximum limit of long long int data type and overflow may occur giving unexpected results, so to keep our result in the valid range of our data types, we modulo result with 109+7.

SOLUTIONS:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

void solve(string s,char a,char b,int n){
  if(n > 0){
    if(s == ""){                  //If string is empty start with any character
      solve(s+ a,a,b,n-1);
      solve(s+ b,a,b,n-1);
    }
    else{                         //If string is not empty check if the last char was b or not
      if(s[s.size()-1]==b){       // If it is b then go solving with a else solve with both
        solve(s + a,a,b,n-1);
      }
      else{
        solve(s + a,a,b,n-1);
        solve(s + b,a,b,n-1);
      }
    }
  }
  else if(n == 0)
    cout<<s<<"\n";
}
int main(){
  int t;cin>>t;
  while(t--){
    char a,b;cin>>a>>b;
    int n;cin>>n;
    string s = "";
    solve(s,a,b,n);
  }
  return 0;
}
