Java: Check whether a number is a Pronic Number or Heteromecic Number or not

Java Numbers: Exercise-13 with Solution

Write a Java program to check whether a number is a Pronic or Heteromecic Number or not.

A pronic number is a number which is the product of two consecutive integers, that is, a number of the form n(n + 1).
The first few pronic numbers are:
0, 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, 42, 56, 72, 90, 110, 132, 156, 182, 210, 240, 272, 306, 342, 380, 420, 462 … etc.

Test Data
Input a number : 110

Java: Check whether a number is a Pronic Number or Heteromecic Number or not.

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Example13 {

    public static void main(String args[])
       {
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Input a number : ");
        int num = sc.nextInt();
        int ans = 0;
    
        for(int i=0; i<num; i++)
        {
            if(i*(i+1) == num)
            {
                ans = 1;
                break;
            }
        }
         
        if(ans == 1)
            System.out.println("Pronic Number.");
        else
            System.out.println("Not a Pronic Number.");      
    }
}

Sample Output:

Input a number : 110                                                                                          
Pronic Number.

Java: Tips of the Day

IsPowerOfTwo

Checks if a value is positive power of two.

To understand how it works let's assume we made a call IsPowerOfTwo(4).

As value is greater than 0, so right side of the && operator will be evaluated.

The result of (~value + 1) is equal to value itself. ~100 + 001 => 011 + 001 => 100. This is equal to value.

The result of (value & value) is value. 100 & 100 => 100.

This will value the expression to true as value is equal to value.

public static boolean isPowerOfTwo(final int value) {
    return value > 0 && ((value & (~value + 1)) == value);
}
