Algorithms Python

Question

The numbers in the table below are the result of executing an algorithm that has one parameter N, a non-negative integer, and produces sequences of integers as outputs. For values of N from 0 to 5, the algorithm produces the following sequences of numbers as outputs:

header

header

0​

1​

-​1 0 3

2​

-​4 -3 0 5 12 21

3​

-​9 -8 -5 0 7 16 27 40 55

4​

-​16 -15 -12 -7 0 9 20 33 48 65 84 105

5​

-​25 -24 -21 -16 -9 0 11 24 39 56 75 96 119 144 171

Determine the algorithm that was used to generate the numbers in this table.

Execute it for N = 6

What is the sequence of numbers for N = 6?

Answer 1

If present in a string, it consists of 30 elements separated by a space.
-36 -35 -32 -27 -20 -11 0 13 28 45 64 85 108 133 160 189 220 253 288 325 364 405 448 493 540 589 640 693 748 805

CORRECTION
If present in a string, it consists of 18 elements separated by a space.
-36 -35 -32 -27 -20 -11 0 13 28 45 64 85 108 133 160 189 220 253

Answer 2

GamerGeil Hd, not quite right.
Your code give the first number correct, but others are wrong so as the length of the answer. You can try with the playground.
OP asked for the sequence N = 6, and he did NOT ask for the code.
This post is more like a challenge than a question, so I didn’t post the code, unless someone tried, failed and ask for pointer.
Although title included “Python”, this problem can be solved with other language as well.

Nick there is a proper Q&A thread specially designated for posting challenges. You may use your profile post or that thread. Otherwise, Sololearn discourages using Q&A for anything other than specific programming questions and questions about Sololearn.

Thanks

Answer 5

def generate_sequence(N):
sequence = []
sequence.append(-(N*N))
for i in range(N + 1):
sequence.append(-(N*N) + i)
return sequence

N = 6
sequence_N_6 = generate_sequence(N)
print(sequence_N_6)

Answer 6

Ah K i try in c++

Answer 8

GamerGeil Hd, if you turn int N = 6 to N = 5 and run your code, you will found the result is not the same as Nick posted.
Give it another try...
