Task
Find palindromic numbers in both binary and ternary bases
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Task
  •   Find and show (in decimal) the first six numbers (non-negative integers) that are   palindromes   in   both:
  •   base 2
  •   base 3
  •   Display   0   (zero) as the first number found, even though some other definitions ignore it.
  •   Optionally, show the decimal number found in its binary and ternary form.
  •   Show all output here.


It's permissible to assume the first two numbers and simply list them.

  •   Sequence A60792,   numbers that are palindromic in bases 2 and 3 on The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.



Ada

Simple Technique (Brute Force)

<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO, Base_Conversion;

procedure Brute is

  type Long is range 0 .. 2**63-1; 
  package BC is new Base_Conversion(Long);
  
  function Palindrome (S : String) return Boolean is
     (if S'Length < 2 then True 
     elsif S(S'First) /= S(S'Last) then False 
     else Palindrome(S(S'First+1 .. S'Last-1)));
     
  function Palindrome(N: Long; Base: Natural) return Boolean is
     (Palindrome(BC.Image(N, Base =>Base)));
 package IIO is new Ada.Text_IO.Integer_IO(Long);
     

begin

  for I in Long(1) .. 10**8 loop 
     if Palindrome(I, 3) and then Palindrome(I, 2) then

IIO.Put(I, Width => 12); -- prints I (Base 10) Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line(": " & BC.Image(I, Base => 2) & "(2)" & ", " & BC.Image(I, Base => 3) & "(3)"); -- prints I (Base 2 and Base 3)

     end if;
     end loop;

end Brute;</lang>

Output:
           0: 0(2), 0(3)
           1: 1(2), 1(3)
        6643: 1100111110011(2), 100010001(3)
     1422773: 101011011010110110101(2), 2200021200022(3)
     5415589: 10100101010001010100101(2), 101012010210101(3)

For larger numbers, this is a bit slow.

Advanced Technique

To speed this up, we directly generate palindromes to the base 3 and then check if these are also palindromes to the base 2. We use the fact that these palindromes (to the base 3) must have an odd number of digits (to the base 2 and 3) and that the number in the middle is a 1 (to the base 3). We use unsigned 64 bits integers that we consider as array of 64 bits thanks to a function Int_To_Bits (an instantiation of a generic conversion function) that goes from one type to the other immediately. We can now access the i'th bit of an Int in a very efficient way (since it is chosen by the compiler itself). This trick gives us a very efficient function to test if a number is a base-2 palindrome.

The code is then very fast and also very much readable than if we had done the bit manipulations by hand.

<lang Ada> with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Unchecked_Conversion;use Ada.Text_IO; procedure Palindromic is

 type Int is mod 2**64; -- the size of the unsigned values we will test doesn't exceed 64 bits   
 type Bits is array (0..63) of Boolean;
   for Bits'Component_Size use 1;
 -- This function allows us to get the i'th bit of an Int k by writing Int_To_Bits(k)(i)
 function Int_To_Bits is new Ada.Unchecked_Conversion(Int,Bits); 
 -- an inline function to test if k is palindromic in a very efficient way since we leave the loop
 -- as soon as two bits are not symmetric). Number_Of_Digits is the number of digits (in base 2) of k minus 1
 function Is_Pal2 (k : Int;Number_Of_Digits : Natural) return Boolean is
 (for all i in 0..Number_Of_Digits=>Int_To_Bits(k)(i)=Int_To_Bits(k)(Number_Of_Digits-i)); 
 
 function Reverse_Number (k : Int) return Int is --returns the symmetric representation of k (base-3)
   n : Int := 0;
   p : Int := k;
 begin

while 0

2, Width=>65); Put (n, Base=>3, Width=>45); put_line (" " & n'Img); end Print; p3, n, bound, count_pal: Int := 1; begin Print (0); -- because 0 is the special case asked to be treated, that is why count_pal=1 Process_Each_Power_Of_4 : for p in 0..31 loop -- because 4^p < 2^64 -- adjust the 3-power of the number to test so that the palindrome built with it has an odd number of digits in base-2 while (3*p3+1)*p3 < 2**(2*p) loop p3 := 3*p3;end loop; bound := 2**(2*p)/(3*p3); for k in Int range Int'Max(p3/3, bound) .. Int'Min (2*bound,p3-1) loop n := (3*k+1)*p3 + Reverse_Number (k); -- n is a 2p+1 digits number in base 2 and is a palindrome in base 3. if Is_Pal2 (n, 2*p) then Print (n); count_pal := count_pal + 1; exit Process_Each_Power_Of_4 when count_pal = 7; end if; end loop; end loop Process_Each_Power_Of_4; end Palindromic; </lang>

Output:

On a modern machine, (core i5 for example), this code, compiled with the -O3 and -gnatp options, takes less than 5 seconds to give the seven first palindromes smaller than 2^64.

C

Per the observations made by the Ruby code (which are correct), the numbers must have odd number of digits in base 3 with a 1 at the middle, and must have odd number of digits in base 2. <lang c>#include <stdio.h> typedef unsigned long long xint;

int is_palin2(xint n) { xint x = 0; if (!(n&1)) return !n; while (x < n) x = x<<1 | (n&1), n >>= 1; return n == x || n == x>>1; }

xint reverse3(xint n) { xint x = 0; while (n) x = x*3 + (n%3), n /= 3; return x; }

void print(xint n, xint base) { putchar(' '); // printing digits backwards, but hey, it's a palindrome do { putchar('0' + (n%base)), n /= base; } while(n); printf("(%lld)", base); }

void show(xint n) { printf("%llu", n); print(n, 2); print(n, 3); putchar('\n'); }

xint min(xint a, xint b) { return a < b ? a : b; } xint max(xint a, xint b) { return a > b ? a : b; }

int main(void) { xint lo, hi, lo2, hi2, lo3, hi3, pow2, pow3, i, n; int cnt;

show(0); cnt = 1;

lo = 0; hi = pow2 = pow3 = 1;

while (1) { for (i = lo; i < hi; i++) { n = (i * 3 + 1) * pow3 + reverse3(i); if (!is_palin2(n)) continue; show(n); if (++cnt >= 7) return 0; }

On my modest machine (Intel Celeron @1.6ghz) this takes about 30 seconds to produce the 7th palindrome. Curiously, the C version (GCC 5.4.0, -O3) takes about 55 seconds on the same machine. As it's a faithful translation, I have no idea why. <lang go>package main

Perl 6

Instead of searching for numbers that are palindromes in one base then checking the other, generate palindromic trinary numbers directly, then check to see if they are also binary palindromes (with additional simplifying constraints as noted in other entries). Outputs the list in decimal, binary and trinary.

<lang perl6>constant palindromes = 0, 1, |gather for 1 .. * -> $p {

   my $pal = $p.base(3);
   my $n = :3($pal ~ '1' ~ $pal.flip);
   next if $n %% 2;
   my $b2 = $n.base(2);
   next if $b2.chars %% 2;
   next unless $b2 eq $b2.flip;
   take $n;

}

REXX

version 1

Programming note:   This version is quite a bit faster than the previous REXX program that was entered.

For this REXX program, a few deterministic assumptions were made:

  •   for the requirement of binary palindromes, the number of binary digits have to be odd.
  •   for the requirement of ternary palindromes, the numbers can't end in zero (in base 3).


The method used is to   (not find, but)   construct   a binary palindrome by:

  •   using the binary version of a number (abcdef),   which may end in binary zeroes,
  •   flipping the binary digits (fedcba)       [note that   a   is always   1   (one)],
  •   constructing two binary palindromes:
  •   abcdef   ||   0   ||   fedcba           and
  •   abcdef   ||   1   ||   fedcba
  •   (the above two concatenation (  ||  ) steps ensures an odd number of binary digits),
  •   ensure the decimal versions are not evenly divisible by 3,
  •   convert the decimal numbers to base 3,
  •   ensure that the numbers in base 3 are palindromic.

Ruby

This program is based on the fact that the double palindromic numbers in base 3 all have a "1" right in the middle. Also, both base 2 and base 3 representations have an odd number of digits.

  1. 1 digit under the number of the palindromic doesn't become zero.
  2. As for the N numbering-system, at the time of the multiple of N, 1 digit below becomes zero.
  3. Palindromic by the even-number digit binary system is 3 multiples.
  4. Palindromic by the even-number digit ternary-system is 4 multiples.
  5. In palindromic by the ternary-system of the odd digit, the value of the center position is an even number in case of "0" or "2".

This program constructs base 3 palindromes using the above "rules" and checks if they happen to be binary palindromes.

<lang ruby>pal23 = Enumerator.new do |y|

 y << 0
 y << 1
 for i in 1 .. 1.0/0.0                 # 1.step do |i|  (Ruby 2.1+)
   n3 = i.to_s(3)
   n = (n3 + "1" + n3.reverse).to_i(3)
   n2 = n.to_s(2)
   y << n  if n2.size.odd? and n2 == n2.reverse
 end

end

puts " decimal ternary binary" 6.times do |i|

 n = pal23.next

Sidef

Translation of: Perl

<lang ruby>var format = "%11s %24s %38s\n" format.printf("decimal", "ternary", "binary") format.printf(0, 0, 0)

for n in (0 .. 2e5) {

   var pal = n.base(3)||
   var b3 = (pal + '1' + pal.flip)
   var b2 = Num(b3, 3).base(2)
   if (b2 == b2.flip) {
       format.printf(Num(b2, 2), b3, b2)
   }

}</lang>

Tcl

We can use [format %b] to format a number as binary, but ternary requires a custom proc: <lang Tcl>proc format_%t {n} {

   while {$n} {
       append r [expr {$n % 3}]
       set n [expr {$n / 3}]
   }
   if {![info exists r]} {set r 0}
   string reverse $r

}</lang>

Identifying palindromes is simple. This form is O(n) with a large constant factor, but good enough:

<lang Tcl>proc pal? {s} {expr {$s eq [string reverse $s]}}</lang>

The naive approach turns out to be very slow: <lang Tcl>proc task Template:Find 6 {

   for {set i 0} {$find} {incr i} {
       set b [format %b $i]
       set t [format_%t $i]
       if {[pal? $b] && [pal? $t]} {
           puts "Palindrome: $i ($b) ($t)"
           incr find -1
       }
   }

}

puts [time {task 4}]</lang>

Output:
Palindrome: 0 (0) (0)
Palindrome: 1 (1) (1)
Palindrome: 6643 (1100111110011) (100010001)
Palindrome: 1422773 (101011011010110110101) (2200021200022)
21944474 microseconds per iteration

22 seconds for only the first four elements .. not good enough! We can do much better than that by naively iterating the binary palindromes. This is nice to do in a coroutine:

<lang Tcl>package require Tcl 8.5 ;# for coroutines

proc 2pals {} {

   yield 0
   yield 1
   while 1 {
       incr i
       set a [format %b $i]
       set b [string reverse $a]
       yield ${a}$b
       yield ${a}0$b
       yield ${a}1$b
   }

}</lang>

The binary strings emitted by this generator are not in increasing order, but for this particular task, that turns out to be unimportant.

Our main loop needs only minor changes:

<lang Tcl>proc task Template:Find 6 {

   coroutine gen apply {{} {yield; 2pals}}
   while {$find} {
       set b [gen]
       set i [scan $b %b]
       set t [format_%t $i]
       if {[pal? $t]} {
           puts "Palindrome: $i ($b) ($t)"
           incr find -1
       }
   }
   rename gen {}

}

puts [time task]</lang>

This version finds the first 6 in under 4 seconds, which is good enough for the task at hand:

Output:
Palindrome: 0 (0) (0)
Palindrome: 1 (1) (1)
Palindrome: 6643 (1100111110011) (100010001)
Palindrome: 1422773 (101011011010110110101) (2200021200022)
Palindrome: 5415589 (10100101010001010100101) (101012010210101)
Palindrome: 90396755477 (1010100001100000100010000011000010101) (22122022220102222022122)
3643152 microseconds per iteration

Plenty more optimisations are possible! Exploiting the observations in Ruby's implementation should make the 7th element reachable in reasonable time ...
