loop over i: 1 to n. if n is divisible by i, then take best: (i + n / i) and minimize it. then the answer is best * 2. code:
Thanks for the solution. But I could not understand the approach. What is the use of best variable in this code? And why should I minimize it? Can you please explain these to me? It would be a great help of me.
best
variable is used to store the minimum value of sum of any 2 non-parallel sides of the rectangle over all possible pairs of such sides.Doubling the value of the variable will result in the perimeter of the rectangle.
OK, I understood. But why the value of the best variable is 1000000000 ? Is there any special reason behind it?
That's because, no such sum can be greater that this value according to the constraints.
You can use
INT_MAX
forint
andLLONG_MAX
forlong long
.These respective MAXs store the maximum value the can fit in the respective datatypes.
