! DESCRIPTION
|
||
! -----------
|
||
|
||
! Pentagonal numbers are generated by the formula, Pn=n(3n−1)/2. The first ten
|
||
! pentagonal numbers are:
|
||
|
||
! 1, 5, 12, 22, 35, 51, 70, 92, 117, 145, ...
|
||
|
||
! It can be seen that P4 + P7 = 22 + 70 = 92 = P8. However, their difference,
|
||
! 70 − 22 = 48, is not pentagonal.
|
||
|
||
! Find the pair of pentagonal numbers, Pj and Pk, for which their sum and
|
||
! difference is pentagonal and D = |Pk − Pj| is minimised; what is the value of D?
|
||
|
||
|
||
! SOLUTION
|
||
! --------
|
||
|
||
! Brute force using a cartesian product and an arbitrarily chosen limit.
