Taxicab numbers
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

A   taxicab number   (the definition that is being used here)   is a positive integer that can be expressed as the sum of two positive cubes in more than one way.


The first taxicab number is   1729,   which is:

13   +   123       and also
93   +   103.


Taxicab numbers are also known as:

  •   taxi numbers
  •   taxi-cab numbers
  •   taxi cab numbers
  •   Hardy-Ramanujan numbers


Task
  • Compute and display the lowest 25 taxicab numbers (in numeric order, and in a human-readable format).
  • For each of the taxicab numbers, show the number as well as it's constituent cubes.


Extra credit
  • Show the 2,000th taxicab number, and a half dozen more

Befunge

This is quite slow in most interpreters, although a decent compiler should allow it to complete in a matter of seconds. Regardless of the speed, though, the range in a standard Befunge-93 implementation is limited to the first 64 numbers in the series, after which the 8-bit memory cells will overflow. That range could be extended in Befunge-98, but realistically you're not likely to wait that long for the results.

Using the heap library, and a heap to store the taxicab numbers. For taxi tuples - decomposition in more than two sums - we use the group function which transforms a list ( 3 5 5 6 8 ...) into ((3) (5 5) (6) ...). <lang scheme> (require '(heap compile))

(define (scube a b) (+ (* a a a) (* b b b))) (compile 'scube "-f") ; "-f" means : no bigint, no rational used

is n - a^3 a cube b^3?
if yes return b, else #f

(define (taxi? n a (b 0)) (set! b (cbrt (- n (* a a a)))) ;; cbrt is ∛ (when (and (< b a) (integer? b)) b)) (compile 'taxi? "-f")

  1. |-------------------

looking for taxis

remove from heap until heap-top >= a
when twins are removed, it is a taxicab number
push it
at any time (top stack) = last removed

(define (clean-taxi H limit: a min-of-heap: htop) (when (and htop (> a htop)) (when (!= (stack-top S) htop) (pop S)) (push S htop) (heap-pop H) (clean-taxi H a (heap-top H)))) (compile 'clean-taxi "-f")

loop on a and b, b <=a , until n taxicabs found

(define (taxicab (n 2100)) (for ((a (in-naturals))) (clean-taxi H (* a a a) (heap-top H)) #:break (> (stack-length S) n) (for ((b a)) (heap-push H (scube a b)))))

(define (taxi-print taxis (nfrom 0) (nto 26)) (for ((i (in-naturals nfrom)) (taxi (sublist taxis nfrom nto))) (writeln (taxi->string i (first taxi))))) </lang>

Explanation:

First, generate 100 cubes.

Then, form a 3 column table of unique rows: sum, small cube, large cube

Then, gather rows where the first entry is the same. Keep the ones with at least two such entries (sorted by ascending order of sum).

Then, place an counting index (starting from 1) in front of each row, so the columns are now: counting index, sum, small cube, large cube.

Note that the cube root of the 25th entry is slightly smaller than 74, so testing against the first 100 cubes is more than sufficient.

Note that here we have elected to show the constituent cubes as themselves rather than as expressions involving their cube roots.

The extra blank box at the end is because when tackling this large of a data set, some sums can be achieved by three different pairs of cubes.

Nim

Translation of: Python

This is a translation of the Python version which uses a heap.

Python generators have been translated as Nim iterators. We used inline iterators as code expansion is not a problem in this case and performances are better. We formatted the output as in the D version.

Execution time is excellent: about 45 ms on our laptop (I5).

Pascal

Works with: Free Pascal

Brute force: Create all combinations x³+ y³ | y < x one by on and test if there is a combination v < x and v> w > y with the same cube-sum. Combinations to check = n*(n-1)/2.The mean distance of one Combination m is m/2 from m³+1³ to m³+(m-1)³. searchSameSum checks one half of this distance == m/4.So O(n) ~ n³ /8 checks are needed. searchSameSum takes most of the time (>95% ), sorting is neglectable. [[1]]C-Version is ~6 times faster aka 43 vs 247 ms for max = 1290^3. Here limit set to 1190 to just reach the goal of element 2006 ;-) so 200ms are possible. Its impressive, that over all one check takes ~3.5 cpu-cycles on i4330 3.5Ghz

Perl

Uses segmentation so memory use is constrained as high values are searched for. Also has parameter to look for Ta(3) and Ta(4) numbers (which is when segmentation is really needed). By default shows the first 25 numbers; with one argument shows that many; with two arguments shows results in the range.

my ($segsize, $low, $high, $i) = (500_000_000, 0, 0, 0);

while ($i < $end) {

Although, for this task it's simply faster to look up the cubes in the sum when we need to print them, because we can now store and sort only the sums: <lang python>cubes, crev = [x**3 for x in range(1,1200)], {}

  1. for cube root lookup

for x,x3 in enumerate(cubes): crev[x3] = x + 1

sums = sorted(x+y for x in cubes for y in cubes if y < x)

idx = 0 for i in range(1, len(sums)-1):

   if sums[i-1] != sums[i] and sums[i] == sums[i+1]:
       idx += 1
       if idx > 25 and idx < 2000 or idx > 2006: continue
       n,p = sums[i],[]

Raku

(formerly Perl 6)

This uses a pretty simple search algorithm that doesn't necessarily return the Taxicab numbers in order. Assuming we want all the Taxicab numbers within some range S to N, we'll search until we find N values. When we find the Nth value, we continue to search up to the cube root of the largest Taxicab number found up to that point. That ensures we will find all of them inside the desired range without needing to search arbitrarily or use magic numbers. Defaults to returning the Taxicab numbers from 1 to 25. Pass in a different start and end value if you want some other range. <lang perl6>constant @cu = (^Inf).map: { .³ }

ZX Spectrum Basic

This will, in the strictest sense, work. Don't hold your breath though; after six hours on an emulator at full speed it had generated the first 10 numbers. Getting to 2006 may take a while longer.

You cannot fit the whole 1625-entry table of cubes (and this program on top) into the 16K ZX Spectrum. Replace all 1625s with 1200s to resolve; numerically unjustified as an exhaustive search, but we know this will be sufficient to find the 2006th number. Eventually.
