Python Challenges: Find the sum of all the numbers that can be written as the sum of fifth powers of their digits
Python Challenges - 1: Exercise-61 with Solution
Surprisingly there are only three numbers that can be written as the sum of fourth powers of their digits:
1634 = 14 + 64 + 34 + 44
8208 = 84 + 24 + 04 + 84
9474 = 94 + 44 + 74 + 44
As 1 = 14 is not a sum it is not included.
The sum of these numbers is 1634 + 8208 + 9474 = 19316.
Write a Python program to find the sum of all the numbers that can be written as the sum of fifth powers of their digits.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
def compute():
result = sum(i for i in range(2, 1000000) if i == fifthPower_digitSum(i))
return str(result)
def fifthPower_digitSum(n):
return sum(int(x)**5 for x in str(n))
print("\nSum of all the numbers that can be written as the sum of fifth powers of their digits:")
print(compute())
Sample Output:
Sum of all the numbers that can be written as the sum of fifth powers of their digits: 443839
