Casting out nines

From Rosetta Code
Task
Casting out nines
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Task   (in three parts)


Part 1

Write a procedure (say ) which implements Casting Out Nines as described by returning the checksum for . Demonstrate the procedure using the examples given there, or others you may consider lucky.

Note that this function does nothing more than calculate the least positive residue, modulo 9. Many of the solutions omit Part 1 for this reason. Many languages have a modulo operator, of which this is a trivial application.

With that understanding, solutions to Part 1, if given, are encouraged to follow the naive pencil-and-paper or mental arithmetic of repeated digit addition understood to be "casting out nines", or some approach other than just reducing modulo 9 using a built-in operator. Solutions for part 2 and 3 are not required to make use of the function presented in part 1.

Part 2

Notwithstanding past Intel microcode errors, checking computer calculations like this would not be sensible. To find a computer use for your procedure:

Consider the statement "318682 is 101558 + 217124 and squared is 101558217124" (see: Kaprekar numbers#Casting Out Nines (fast)).
note that has the same checksum as ();
note that has the same checksum as () because for a Kaprekar they are made up of the same digits (sometimes with extra zeroes);
note that this implies that for Kaprekar numbers the checksum of equals the checksum of .

Demonstrate that your procedure can be used to generate or filter a range of numbers with the property and show that this subset is a small proportion of the range and contains all the Kaprekar in the range.

Part 3

Considering this MathWorld page, produce a efficient algorithm based on the more mathematical treatment of Casting Out Nines, and realizing:

is the residual of mod ;
the procedure can be extended to bases other than 9.

Demonstrate your algorithm by generating or filtering a range of numbers with the property and show that this subset is a small proportion of the range and contains all the Kaprekar in the range.

// A casting out nines algorithm.

// Quoting from: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/55926.html
/*
First, for any number we can get a single digit, which I will call the 
"check digit," by repeatedly adding the digits. That is, we add the 
digits of the number, then if there is more than one digit in the 
result we add its digits, and so on until there is only one digit 
left.

...

You may notice that when you add the digits of 6395, if you just 
ignore the 9, and the 6+3 = 9, you still end up with 5 as your check 
digit. This is because any 9's make no difference in the result. 
That's why the process is called "casting out" nines. Also, at any 
step in the process, you can add digits, not just at the end: to do 
8051647, I can say 8 + 5 = 13, which gives 4; plus 1 is 5, plus 6 is 
11, which gives 2, plus 4 is 6, plus 7 is 13 which gives 4. I never 
have to work with numbers bigger than 18.

co9 n

task2 = filter (\n -> co9 n == co9 (n ^ 2)) [1 .. 100]

task3 k = filter (\n -> n `mod` k == n ^ 2 `mod` k) [1 .. 100]

Auxillary function, returning digits of a number for given base

digits base = map (`mod` base) . takeWhile (> 0) . iterate (`div` base)

or using unfolding:

digits base = Data.List.unfoldr modDiv
  where modDiv 0 = Nothing
        modDiv n = let (q, r) = (n `divMod` base) in Just (r, q)

Output

λ> co9 232345

λ> co9 34234234
7
λ> co9 (232345 + 34234234) == co9 232345 + co9 34234234

Finally it is possible to test usefull properties of co9 with QuickCheck:

λ> :m Test.QuickCheck
λ> quickCheck (\a -> a > 0 ==> co9 a == a `mod` 9)
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.
λ> quickCheck (\a b -> a > 0 && b > 0 ==> co9 (co9 a + co9 b) == co9 (a+b))
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.
λ> quickCheck (\a b -> a > 0 && b > 0 ==> co9 (co9 a * co9 b) == co9 (a*b))

This is an implementation of: "given two numbers which mark the beginning and end of a range of integers, and another number which denotes an integer base, return numbers from within the range where the number is equal (modulo the base minus 1) to its square". At the time of this writing, this task is a draft task and this description does not precisely match the task description on this page. Eventually, either the task description will change to match this implementation (which means this paragraph should be removed) or the task description will change to conflict with this implementation (so this entire section should be re-written).

castout=: 1 :0
   [: (#~  ] =&((m-1)&|) *:) <. + [: i. (+*)@-~
)

Example use:

   0 (10 castout) 100
0 1 9 10 18 19 27 28 36 37 45 46 54 55 63 64 72 73 81 82 90 91 99 100

Alternate implementation:

castout=: 1 :0
   [: (#~  0 = (m-1) | 0 _1 1&p.) <. + [: i. (+*)@-~
)

Note that about half of the code here is the code that implements "range of numbers". If we factor that out, and represent the desired values directly the code becomes much simpler:

   (#~ 0=9|0 _1 1&p.) i.101
0 1 9 10 18 19 27 28 36 37 45 46 54 55 63 64 72 73 81 82 90 91 99 100
   (#~  ] =&(9&|) *:) i. 101
0 1 9 10 18 19 27 28 36 37 45 46 54 55 63 64 72 73 81 82 90 91 99 100

And, of course, we can name parts of these expressions. For example:

   (#~  ] =&(co9=: 9&|) *:) i. 101
0 1 9 10 18 19 27 28 36 37 45 46 54 55 63 64 72 73 81 82 90 91 99 100

Or, if you prefer:

co9=: 9&|
   (#~  ] =&co9 *:) i. 101
0 1 9 10 18 19 27 28 36 37 45 46 54 55 63 64 72 73 81 82 90 91 99 100

jq

Works with: jq version 1.4

In the following, the filter is_kaprekar as defined at Kaprekar_numbers#jq is used. Since it is only defined for decimals, this section is correspondingly restricted.

Definition of co9:

def co9:
  def digits: tostring | explode | map(. - 48);  # "0" is 48
  if . == 9 then 0
  elif 0 <= . and . <= 8 then .
  else digits | add | co9
  end;

For convenience, we also define a function to check whether co9(i) equals co9(i*i) for a given integer, i:

def co9_equals_co9_squared: co9 == ((.*.)|co9);

Example:

Integers in 1 .. 100 satisfying co9(i) == co9(i*i):

[range (1;101) | select( co9_equals_co9_squared )

produces:

[1,9,10,18,19,27,28,36,37,45,46,54,55,63,64,72,73,81,82,90,91,99,100]

Verification:

One way to verify that the Kaprekar numbers satisfy the co9_equals_co9_squared condition is by inspection. For the range 1..100 considered above, we have:

[ range(1;101) | select(is_kaprekar) ]
[1,9,45,55,99]

To check the condition programmatically for a given range of integers, we can define a function which will emit any exceptions, e.g.

def verify:
  range(1; .)
  | select(is_kaprekar and (co9_equals_co9_squared | not));

For example, running (1000 | verify) produces an empty stream.

Proportion of integers in 1 .. n satisfying the mod (b-1) condition:

For a given base, "b", the following function computes the proportion of integers, i, in 1 .. n such that i % (b-1) == (i*i) % (b-1):

def proportion(base):
  def count(stream): reduce stream as $i (0; . + 1);
  . as $n
  | (base - 1) as $b
  | count( range(1; 1+$n) | select( . % $b == (.*.) % $b) ) / $n ;

For example:

Task 1: Simple referenced implementation that handles any base:

Co9[n_, b_: 10] := 
  With[{ans = FixedPoint[Total@IntegerDigits[#, b] &, n]}, 
   If[ans == b - 1, 0, ans]];
Task 1 output:

Total[Co9 /@ vals] == Co9[Total[vals]]

Task 3: Defines the efficient co9 using Mod.

Co9eff[n_, b_: 10] := Mod[n, b - 1];
