Starting with the number 1 and moving to the right in a clockwise direction a 5 by 5 spiral is formed as follows:
21 22 23 24 25
20 7 8 9 10
19 6 1 2 11
18 5 4 3 12
17 16 15 14 13
It can be verified that the sum of the numbers on the diagonals is 101.
What is the sum of the numbers on the diagonals in a 1001 by 1001 spiral formed in the same way?
#include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> #include<math.h> #include<ctype.h> #include<stdlib.h> #include<stdbool.h> void countSum() { int i=3; int sum=1; int n=(1001+1)/2-1; while(n--) { int t=i*i; sum+=(4*t-(i-1)*6); i=i+2; } printf("%d\n",sum); } int main() { countSum(); return 0; }
