samskivert: Euler 012

12 January 2008

Problem 012:

object Euler12 extends Application {
  def findnum (i :Int, x :Int) :Int = {
    var divs = List.flatten(for {
      div <- List.range(1, Math.sqrt(x)+1)
      if x % div == 0
    } yield List(div, x / div).removeDuplicates);
    if (divs.length > 500) return x;
    else return findnum(i+1, x+i);
  }
  println(findnum(1, 0));
}

Pretty straightforward, just compute the triangle numbers incrementally and stop when we find one with over 500 divisors.
