我用c++写了一个程序来寻找ab = C的所有解,其中a, b和C一起使用所有的数字0-9,只使用一次。程序循环遍历a和b的值,并每次对a、b和ab运行数字计数例程,以检查是否满足数字条件。

但是,当ab超出整数限制时,会产生伪解。我最终使用如下代码来检查这个:

unsigned long b, c, c_test;
...
c_test=c*b;         // Possible overflow
if (c_test/b != c) {/* There has been an overflow*/}
else c=c_test;      // No overflow

是否有更好的方法来测试溢出?我知道有些芯片有一个内部标志,在溢出发生时设置,但我从未见过通过C或c++访问它。


注意,有符号int溢出在C和c++中是未定义的行为,因此您必须在不实际引起它的情况下检测它。对于加法前的有符号整型溢出,请参见在C/ c++中检测有符号溢出。


当前回答

我看到你用的是无符号整数。根据定义,在C中(我不了解c++),无符号算术不会溢出…所以,至少对C来说,你的观点是没有意义的:)

对于有符号整数,一旦出现溢出,就会发生未定义行为(UB),程序可以做任何事情(例如:使测试不确定)。

#include <limits.h>

int a = <something>;
int x = <something>;
a += x;              /* UB */
if (a < 0) {         /* Unreliable test */
  /* ... */
}

要创建一个符合要求的程序,您需要在生成溢出之前测试溢出。该方法也可以用于无符号整数:

// For addition
#include <limits.h>

int a = <something>;
int x = <something>;
if (x > 0 && a > INT_MAX - x) // `a + x` would overflow
if (x < 0 && a < INT_MIN - x) // `a + x` would underflow

// For subtraction
#include <limits.h>
int a = <something>;
int x = <something>;
if (x < 0 && a > INT_MAX + x) // `a - x` would overflow
if (x > 0 && a < INT_MIN + x) // `a - x` would underflow

// For multiplication
#include <limits.h>

int a = <something>;
int x = <something>;
// There may be a need to check for -1 for two's complement machines.
// If one number is -1 and another is INT_MIN, multiplying them we get abs(INT_MIN) which is 1 higher than INT_MAX
if (a == -1 && x == INT_MIN) // `a * x` can overflow
if (x == -1 && a == INT_MIN) // `a * x` (or `a / x`) can overflow
// general case
if (x != 0 && a > INT_MAX / x) // `a * x` would overflow
if (x != 0 && a < INT_MIN / x) // `a * x` would underflow

对于除法(INT_MIN和-1特殊情况除外),不可能超过INT_MIN或INT_MAX。

其他回答

I see that a lot of people answered the question about overflow, but I wanted to address his original problem. He said the problem was to find ab=c such that all digits are used without repeating. Ok, that's not what he asked in this post, but I'm still think that it was necessary to study the upper bound of the problem and conclude that he would never need to calculate or detect an overflow (note: I'm not proficient in math so I did this step by step, but the end result was so simple that this might have a simple formula).

重点是问题要求的a b c的上限是98.765.432。不管怎样,先把问题分成琐碎部分和非琐碎部分:

X0 == 1(9、8、7、6、5、4、3、2的所有排列都是解) X1 == x(无解) 0b == 0(不可能解) 1b == 1(无解) Ab, a > 1, b > 1(非平凡)

Now we just need to show that no other solution is possible and only the permutations are valid (and then the code to print them is trivial). We go back to the upper bound. Actually the upper bound is c ≤ 98.765.432. It's the upper bound because it's the largest number with 8 digits (10 digits total minus 1 for each a and b). This upper bound is only for c because the bounds for a and b must be much lower because of the exponential growth, as we can calculate, varying b from 2 to the upper bound:

    9938.08^2 == 98765432
    462.241^3 == 98765432
    99.6899^4 == 98765432
    39.7119^5 == 98765432
    21.4998^6 == 98765432
    13.8703^7 == 98765432
    9.98448^8 == 98765432
    7.73196^9 == 98765432
    6.30174^10 == 98765432
    5.33068^11 == 98765432
    4.63679^12 == 98765432
    4.12069^13 == 98765432
    3.72429^14 == 98765432
    3.41172^15 == 98765432
    3.15982^16 == 98765432
    2.95305^17 == 98765432
    2.78064^18 == 98765432
    2.63493^19 == 98765432
    2.51033^20 == 98765432
    2.40268^21 == 98765432
    2.30883^22 == 98765432
    2.22634^23 == 98765432
    2.15332^24 == 98765432
    2.08826^25 == 98765432
    2.02995^26 == 98765432
    1.97741^27 == 98765432

注意,例如最后一行:它说1.97^27 ~98M。因此,例如,1^27 == 1和2^27 == 134.217.728,这不是一个解决方案,因为它有9位数字(2 > 1.97,所以它实际上比应该测试的要大)。可以看到,用于测试a和b的组合非常小。对于b == 14,我们需要尝试2和3。对于b == 3,我们从2开始,到462结束。结果均小于~98M。

现在只需测试以上所有的组合,找出不重复任何数字的组合:

    ['0', '2', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8'] 84^2 = 7056
    ['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '8', '9'] 59^2 = 3481
    ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '8', '9'] 59^2 = 3481 (+leading zero)
    ['1', '2', '3', '5', '8'] 8^3 = 512
    ['0', '1', '2', '3', '5', '8'] 8^3 = 512 (+leading zero)
    ['1', '2', '4', '6'] 4^2 = 16
    ['0', '1', '2', '4', '6'] 4^2 = 16 (+leading zero)
    ['1', '2', '4', '6'] 2^4 = 16
    ['0', '1', '2', '4', '6'] 2^4 = 16 (+leading zero)
    ['1', '2', '8', '9'] 9^2 = 81
    ['0', '1', '2', '8', '9'] 9^2 = 81 (+leading zero)
    ['1', '3', '4', '8'] 3^4 = 81
    ['0', '1', '3', '4', '8'] 3^4 = 81 (+leading zero)
    ['2', '3', '6', '7', '9'] 3^6 = 729
    ['0', '2', '3', '6', '7', '9'] 3^6 = 729 (+leading zero)
    ['2', '3', '8'] 2^3 = 8
    ['0', '2', '3', '8'] 2^3 = 8 (+leading zero)
    ['2', '3', '9'] 3^2 = 9
    ['0', '2', '3', '9'] 3^2 = 9 (+leading zero)
    ['2', '4', '6', '8'] 8^2 = 64
    ['0', '2', '4', '6', '8'] 8^2 = 64 (+leading zero)
    ['2', '4', '7', '9'] 7^2 = 49
    ['0', '2', '4', '7', '9'] 7^2 = 49 (+leading zero)

没有一个匹配问题(这也可以通过缺少'0','1',…“9”)。

下面是解决该问题的示例代码。还要注意,这是用Python编写的,不是因为它需要任意精确整数(代码不会计算任何大于9800万的数字),而是因为我们发现测试的数量非常少,所以我们应该使用高级语言来利用其内置的容器和库(还要注意:代码有28行)。

    import math

    m = 98765432
    l = []
    for i in xrange(2, 98765432):
        inv = 1.0/i
        r = m**inv
        if (r < 2.0): break
        top = int(math.floor(r))
        assert(top <= m)

        for j in xrange(2, top+1):
            s = str(i) + str(j) + str(j**i)
            l.append((sorted(s), i, j, j**i))
            assert(j**i <= m)

    l.sort()
    for s, i, j, ji in l:
        assert(ji <= m)
        ss = sorted(set(s))
        if s == ss:
            print '%s %d^%d = %d' % (s, i, j, ji)

        # Try with non significant zero somewhere
        s = ['0'] + s
        ss = sorted(set(s))
        if s == ss:
            print '%s %d^%d = %d (+leading zero)' % (s, i, j, ji)

mozilla::CheckedInt<T>为整数类型T提供溢出检查的整数数学(使用clang和gcc上可用的编译器intrinsic)。该代码是在MPL 2.0下编写的,并且依赖于三个(integertypetrait .h, Attributes.h和Compiler.h)其他仅针对标头的非标准库标头以及mozilla特定的断言机制。如果导入代码,可能需要替换断言机制。

为了扩展Head Geek的答案,有一种更快的方法来执行addition_is_safe;

bool addition_is_safe(unsigned int a, unsigned int b)
{
    unsigned int L_Mask = std::numeric_limits<unsigned int>::max();
    L_Mask >>= 1;
    L_Mask = ~L_Mask;

    a &= L_Mask;
    b &= L_Mask;

    return ( a == 0 || b == 0 );
}

这使用了机器架构安全,64位和32位无符号整数仍然可以正常工作。基本上,我创建了一个掩码,它将屏蔽除最重要的位外的所有内容。然后,对两个整数进行掩码,如果其中任何一个没有设置该位,则加法是安全的。

如果在某个构造函数中预初始化掩码,这将更快,因为它永远不会改变。

我需要为浮点数回答同样的问题,在浮点数中位屏蔽和移位看起来没有希望。我确定的方法适用于有符号和无符号,整数和浮点数。即使没有更大的数据类型可以用于中间计算,它也可以工作。对于所有这些类型,它不是最有效的,但因为它确实适用于所有类型,所以值得使用。

有符号溢出测试,加减法:

Obtain the constants that represent the largest and smallest possible values for the type, MAXVALUE and MINVALUE. Compute and compare the signs of the operands. a. If either value is zero, then neither addition nor subtraction can overflow. Skip remaining tests. b. If the signs are opposite, then addition cannot overflow. Skip remaining tests. c. If the signs are the same, then subtraction cannot overflow. Skip remaining tests. Test for positive overflow of MAXVALUE. a. If both signs are positive and MAXVALUE - A < B, then addition will overflow. b. If the sign of B is negative and MAXVALUE - A < -B, then subtraction will overflow. Test for negative overflow of MINVALUE. a. If both signs are negative and MINVALUE - A > B, then addition will overflow. b. If the sign of A is negative and MINVALUE - A > B, then subtraction will overflow. Otherwise, no overflow.

签名溢出测试,乘法和除法:

Obtain the constants that represent the largest and smallest possible values for the type, MAXVALUE and MINVALUE. Compute and compare the magnitudes (absolute values) of the operands to one. (Below, assume A and B are these magnitudes, not the signed originals.) a. If either value is zero, multiplication cannot overflow, and division will yield zero or an infinity. b. If either value is one, multiplication and division cannot overflow. c. If the magnitude of one operand is below one and of the other is greater than one, multiplication cannot overflow. d. If the magnitudes are both less than one, division cannot overflow. Test for positive overflow of MAXVALUE. a. If both operands are greater than one and MAXVALUE / A < B, then multiplication will overflow. b. If B is less than one and MAXVALUE * B < A, then division will overflow. Otherwise, no overflow.

注意:MINVALUE的最小溢出由3处理,因为我们取的是绝对值。然而,如果 ABS(MINVALUE) > MAXVALUE,那么我们将会有一些罕见的假阳性。

下溢测试类似,但涉及EPSILON(大于零的最小正数)。

内联程序集允许您直接检查溢出位。如果你打算使用c++,你真的应该学习汇编。
