0202 - Happy Number
Write an algorithm to determine if a number n is happy.
A happy number is a number defined by the following process:
Starting with any positive integer, replace the number by the sum of the squares of its digits.
Repeat the process until the number equals 1 (where it will stay), or it loops endlessly in a cycle which does not include 1.
Those numbers for which this process ends in 1 are happy.
Return true if n is a happy number, and false if not.
Examples
Input: n = 19 Output: true Explanation: 12 + 92 = 82 82 + 22 = 68 62 + 82 = 100 12 + 02 + 02 = 1
Input: n = 2 Output: false
Constraints
1 <= n <= 231 - 1
Java Solution
class Solution {
public boolean isHappy(int n) {
Set<Integer> seen = new HashSet<>();
while(n != 1 && !seen.contains(n)) {
seen.add(n);
n = helper(n);
}
return n == 1;
}
private int helper(int n) {
int sum = 0;
while(n > 0) {
int digit = n % 10;
n = n / 10;
sum += digit * digit;
}
return sum;
}
}
