Hi,
1. Can you tell me the arithmetic's theory (douchuan)
hi
I don't know what does the arithmetic say!
The result from a is 1000, then the result from b is 6.
I have optimized a system for a long time, but i find out i must
optimize all aspects, just a aspect isn't work.
I want to know arithmetic's theory.
a.
long endPoints = (1000 + 1000 + 1000 + 1000 + 1000) / 5;
if(endPoints > 6208L)
endPoints = 6208L;
long halfEndPoints = endPoints / 2L;
long l2 = endPoints - halfEndPoints;
long l3 = 1L;
l3 = 1000L*1000L*1000L*1000L*1000L;
f(l3 != 0L)
while(halfEndPoints > 0L)
{
if(l2 * l2 * l2 * l2 * l2 > l3)
endPoints = l2;
else
halfEndPoints /= 2L;
l2 = endPoints - halfEndPoints;
}
else
endPoints = 0L;
System.out.println("endPoints: " + endPoints);
result : 1000
The long type takes 64bits ,about 10^19 . Therefore there's no
overflow.
I could see a limit arithmetic computation from this program:
Assume endpoints = a ; halfendpoints = a/(2^n) (n -> Infinite)
Obvious,from the arithmetic view, halfendpoints would be evalued as
lim halfendpoints (n->Infinite). Then the arithmetic hardware might finally
compute halfendpoints as 0 (divition computation is somehow platform
dependent) . Therefore ,endPoints would be 1000.
b.
long endPoints = (6000 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1) / 5;
if(endPoints > 6208L)
endPoints = 6208L;
long halfEndPoints = endPoints / 2L;
long l2 = endPoints - halfEndPoints;
long l3 = 1L;
l3 = 6000L*1L*1L*1L*1L;
f(l3 != 0L)
while(halfEndPoints > 0L)
{
if(l2 * l2 * l2 * l2 * l2 > l3)
endPoints = l2;
else
halfEndPoints /= 2L;
l2 = endPoints - halfEndPoints;
}
else
endPoints = 0L;
System.out.println("endPoints: " + endPoints);
result : 6
Similiar to the first program:
Assume endPoints = a , halfEndPoints = a/(2^n) (n->Infinite),in the
previous program,endPoints keeps invariable,here in this case,both endPoints
and halfEndPoints are variable.
We can easily get the boudary value of l2 for "if(l2 * l2 * l2 * l2
* l2 > l3)" ,x^5 > l3 , the minimum value for x is 6. (5^5 < 6000,6^5 >
6000).
That means the program result would be no more than 6. Meaningwhile
,in the loop body,l2 = a - a/(2^n) (n->Infinite, a = l2 | l2^5>l3).
Through some analysis of the loop itself,we could find the endpoint "a "
would be decoupled every two loop turn. So let a = v/2^t (t is the turn
counts,v is our initial endpoints ,600). l2 = v/2^t - (v/2^t) / (2^n) ( l2
<= 6 is our desired result). Now we could compute 600/2^t - (600/2^t)/(2^n)
<= 6. Since n tends to be infinite,we now get 600/2^t <= 6. We could know
the t value. Therefore,finally, the l2 value is 6, and then endPoints is 6,
then we get the result 6.
Sorry, I could not describe this process clearly enough. This
program result might vary when the hardware rounding algorithm varies.
This is my view towards your questions.pls tell me if I made some
mistakes. thanks.
Cheers
Sakur
