202. 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.
def isHappy(n) :
def get_next(number):
total_sum = 0
while number > 0:
number, digit = divmod(number, 10)
total_sum += digit ** 2
return total_sum
slow_runner = n
fast_runner = get_next(n)
while fast_runner != 1 and slow_runner != fast_runner:
slow_runner = get_next(slow_runner)
fast_runner = get_next(get_next(fast_runner))
return fast_runner == 1
