Given an array arr[] of size N consisting of only of 0s initially, the task is to count the number of 1s that can be obtained in the array by performing the following operation N times.

In i th operation, flip all the array elements whose index ( 1-based indexing ) is a multiple of i.

Examples:

Input: arr[] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 } 
Output:
Explanation: 
Flipping array elements whose index is multiple of 1 modifies arr[] to { 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 } 
Flipping array elements whose index is multiple of 2 modifies arr[] to { 1, 0, 1, 0, 1 } 
Flipping array elements whose index is multiple of 3 modifies arr[] to { 1, 0, 0, 0, 1 } 
Flipping array elements whose index is multiple of 4 modifies arr[] to { 1, 0, 0, 1, 1 } 
Flipping array elements whose index is multiple of 5 modifies arr[] to { 1, 0, 0, 1, 0 } 
Therefore, the required output is 2.

Input: arr[] = { 0, 0 } 
Output:
 

Naive Approach: The simplest approach to solve this problem is to iterate over the range [1, N] using variable i and flip all the array elements whose index is a multiple of i. Finally, print the count of total number of 1s present in the array.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program to implement
// the above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count total number of 1s in
// array by performing given operations
int cntOnesArrWithGivenOp(int arr[], int N)
{
    // Stores count of 1s in the array
    // by performing the operations
    int cntOnes = 0;
 
    // Iterate over the range [1, N]
    for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
 
        // Flip all array elements whose
        // index is multiple of i
        for (int j = i - 1; j < N;
             j += i) {
 
            // Update arr[i]
            arr[j] = !(arr[j]);
        }
    }
 
    // Traverse the array
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
 
        // If current element is 1
        if (arr[i] == 1) {
 
            // Update cntOnes
            cntOnes += 1;
        }
    }
 
    return cntOnes;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    int arr[] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 };
 
    int N = sizeof(arr)
            / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    cout << cntOnesArrWithGivenOp(arr, N);
 
    return 0;
}

        // by performing the operations
        int cntOnes = 0;
 
        // Iterate over the range [1, N]
        for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++)
        {
 
            // Flip all array elements whose
            // index is multiple of i
            for (int j = i - 1; j < N; j += i)
            {
 
                // Update arr[i]
                arr[j] = arr[j] == 0 ? 1 : 0;

Efficient Approach: To optimize the above approach, the idea is based on the fact that only perfect squares contain odd number of factors. Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

  • Initialize a variable, say cntOnes, to store the count of 1s in the array by performing the operations.
  • Update cntOnes = sqrt(N)
  • Finally, print the value of cntOnes.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program to implement
// the above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count total number of 1s in
// array by performing the given operations
int cntOnesArrWithGivenOp(int arr[], int N)
{
 
    // Stores count of 1s in the array
    // by performing the operations
    int cntOnes = 0;
 
    // Update cntOnes
    cntOnes = sqrt(N);
 
    return cntOnes;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
 
    int arr[] = { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 };
 
    int N = sizeof(arr)
            / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    cout << cntOnesArrWithGivenOp(arr, N);
 
    return 0;
}
