这是Python中的，基本上，字符串比较和一个状态机。

def divide_by_3(input):
  to_do = {}
  enque_index = 0
  zero_to_9 = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
  leave_over = 0
  for left_over in (0, 1, 2):
    for digit in zero_to_9:
      # left_over, digit => enque, leave_over
      to_do[(left_over, digit)] = (zero_to_9[enque_index], leave_over)
      if leave_over == 0:
        leave_over = 1
      elif leave_over == 1:
        leave_over = 2
      elif leave_over == 2 and enque_index != 9:
        leave_over = 0
        enque_index = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)[enque_index]
  answer_q = []
  left_over = 0
  digits = list(str(input))
  if digits[0] == "-":
    answer_q.append("-")
  digits = digits[1:]
  for digit in digits:
    enque, left_over = to_do[(left_over, int(digit))]
    if enque or len(answer_q):
      answer_q.append(enque)
  answer = 0
  if len(answer_q):
    answer = int("".join([str(a) for a in answer_q]))
  return answer

#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct { char a,b,c; } Triple;

unsigned long div3(Triple *v, char *r) {
  if ((long)v <= 2)  
    return (unsigned long)r;
  return div3(&v[-1], &r[1]);
}

int main() {
  unsigned long v = 21; 
  int r = div3((Triple*)v, 0); 
  printf("%ld / 3 = %d\n", v, r); 
  return 0;
}

很好bc:

$ num=1337; printf "scale=5;${num}\x2F3;\n" | bc
445.66666

首先是我想到的。

irb(main):101:0> div3 = -> n { s = '%0' + n.to_s + 's'; (s % '').gsub('   ', ' ').size }
=> #<Proc:0x0000000205ae90@(irb):101 (lambda)>
irb(main):102:0> div3[12]
=> 4
irb(main):103:0> div3[666]
=> 222

编辑:对不起，我没有注意到标签c。但是你可以使用字符串格式的想法，我猜…

你可以考虑用图或树状结构来解决这个问题。基本上生成的顶点数与要除以3的数一样多。然后继续将每个未配对的顶点与其他两个顶点配对。

粗糙的伪代码:

function divide(int num)
    while(num!=0)
        Add a new vertice to vertiexList.
        num--
    quotient = 0
    for each in vertexList(lets call this vertex A)
        if vertexList not empty
            Add an edge between A and another vertex(say B)
        else
            your Remainder is 1 and Quotient is quotient
        if vertexList not empty
            Add an edge between A and another vertex(say C)
        else
            your remainder is 2 and Quotient is quotient
        quotient++
        remove A, B, C from vertexList
    Remainder is 0 and Quotient is quotient

这显然是可以优化的，复杂度取决于你的数字有多大，但它应该工作，只要你能做++和——。 这就像数更酷的东西一样。

使用cblas，作为OS X加速框架的一部分。

[02:31:59] [william@relativity ~]$ cat div3.c
#import <stdio.h>
#import <Accelerate/Accelerate.h>

int main() {
    float multiplicand = 123456.0;
    float multiplier = 0.333333;
    printf("%f * %f == ", multiplicand, multiplier);
    cblas_sscal(1, multiplier, &multiplicand, 1);
    printf("%f\n", multiplicand);
}

[02:32:07] [william@relativity ~]$ clang div3.c -framework Accelerate -o div3 && ./div3
123456.000000 * 0.333333 == 41151.957031
