Java: Generate and show the first 15 narcissistic decimal numbers

Java Numbers: Exercise-6 with Solution

Write a Java program to generate and show the first 15 narcissistic decimal numbers.

A Narcissistic decimal number is a non-negative integer, n that is equal to the sum of the m-th powers of each of the digits in the decimal representation of n, where m is the number of digits in the decimal representation of n.

  • if n is 153
  • then m , (the number of decimal digits) is 3
  • we have 13 + 53 + 33 = 1 + 125 + 27 = 153
  • and so 153 is a narcissistic decimal number .

Narcissistic numbers in various bases :
The sequence of base 10 narcissistic numbers starts: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 153, 370, ……
The sequence of base 8 narcissistic numbers starts: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 24, 64, 134, 205,….

Pictorial Presentation:

Java: Generate and show the first 15 narcissistic decimal numbers.

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

// https://rosettacode.org/
public class Example6 {
	public static void main(String[] args){
		for(long n = 0, ctr = 0; ctr < 15; n++){
			if(is_narc_dec_num(n)){
				System.out.print(n + " ");
				ctr++;
			}
		}
		System.out.println();
	}
    public static boolean is_narc_dec_num(long n){
		if(n < 0) return false;
 
		String str1 = Long.toString(n);
		int x = str1.length();
		long sum_num = 0;
 
		for(char c : str1.toCharArray()){
			sum_num += Math.pow(Character.digit(c, 10), x);
		}
		return sum_num == n;
	}
 	
}

Sample Output:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 153 370 371 407 1634
