why this program is not working?

why this program is not working?

And Is it’s logic correct?

question : https://www.codechef.com/problems/PPNUM/

My soln https://ideone.com/LhnETw why its not working.

please help me fast

Recheck line number 11, pref[0] value is not defined!

ll x= pref[i-1]+(int)(log10(i)+1)*i;

no,then also it’s not working

You have taken l and r as long long int and scanning them as int. Also pref is an int vector and you are printing the answer as long long int.

@idiot_owl , now also it’s not working.

You cannot have a loop till 109.

so what should i do in place of it?

@pandey_96

pref[0]=0; is where you are wrong.

pref.push_back(0); is the correct way.

@pandey_96

1 ≤ L ≤ R ≤ 1,000,000,000 (10^9)

For these contraints you will surely exceed memory/time limit for current logic.

So try another approach,

From contraints you can observe the number of digits say d would follow as,

1 ≤ d ≤ 10

So, find sum of no.s having same no. of digits using Arithmetic Progression and multiply it by no. of digits.

You’ll need to do it for 10 segments(Worst case)

Worst Case Complexity: O(10) per test case

You can futher reduce this using prefix sum array.
