#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int N, i, sum1=0, sum2=0;
    scanf("%d", &N);

    for(i=1;i<=N;i+=2){
        sum1+=i;
    }
    for(i=2;i<=N;i+=2){
        sum2+=i;
    }

    printf("%d", (sum1-sum2));
    return 0;
}

where is my mistake??

#3

N can be as large as 10^18. You cannot store such a large number in an int.

#4

#include < iostream >

int main()
{
long long N; // i also tried with int type
std::cin >> N;
if(N % 2 == 0) {
std::cout << -N / 2 << std::endl;
}
else {
std::cout << (N + 1) / 2 << std::endl;
}

return 0;

}

// I can’t find the wrong. what’s the mistake. Is my algorithm wrong? Need help.

#5

Why is there a minus sign?

#6

if N is even , the result would be negative…result = (summation of odd numbers till N) - (summation of even number till N)

#7

okk…my code is accepted . There shouldn’t be the minus sign . Thank you very much for this suggestion. I couldn’t understand the problem clearly. Thank you again.

#8

Glad to help :slightly_smiling_face:

whats wrong here?

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int N,i,sum1=0,sum2=0;
    scanf("%d",&N);
    for(i=1;i<=N;i++)
    {
        if(i%2==1)

            sum1=i+sum1;
            else
               sum2=i+sum2;

    }
    if(N%2==1)
    {printf("%d",sum1-sum2);}
    else
       {printf("%d",sum2-sum1);}
    return 0;
}
#11

Try testing your code with the input 10000000000 .

#12 
a=int(input("Enter the value of N: ")
if N%2==0:
        print("Even  Number")
else:
       print("Odd Number")
#13

input N
if N%3==0:
print(“This is a Odd Number”)
else:
print(“This is a Even Number”)

#14

Why I am getting compilation error?

#15

Please share your submission ID.

#16 
#include <stdio.h>
 
void main()
{
    int i, N, odd= 0, even= 0,res=0;
 	0<=N<=10^18;
    scanf("%d", &N);
    for (i = 1; i <= N; i++)
    {
        if (i % 2 == 0)
            even = even + i;
        else
            odd = odd + i;
    }
    res=odd-even;
    printf("%d\n", res);

}

whats wrong with the code?

#17

So basically my problem is that the answer it gives seems to be correct, but after submitting it I get a message saying wrong answer. My code is:

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    long long N, sum1=0, sum2=0;
    scanf("%I64d", &N);
    while(N>=0)
    {
        sum1=sum1+N;
        N--;
        sum2=sum2+N;
        N--;
    }
    if(sum1>sum2)
    {
        printf("%I64d\n", sum1-sum2);
    }
    else
    {
        printf("%I64d\n", sum2-sum1);
    }
    return 0;
}
#18 
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
 long long int a,sum,sum1,sum2,sum3,even;
  scanf("%lld",&a);
  if(a%2==0)
  {
      sum1=(a*(a+1))/2;
      even=a/2;
      sum2=even*(even+1);
      sum3=sum1-sum2;
      sum=sum2-sum3;
  }
  else
  {

      sum1=(a*(a+1))/2;
      even=(a-1)/2;
      sum2=even*(even+1);
      sum3=sum1-sum2;
      sum=sum3-sum2;
  }
  printf("%lld",sum);
    return 0;
}

Where is the problem in this code!!!

#19 
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    long long i,sum1=0,sum2=0,n,n1,n2;
    scanf("%lld",&n);
    if(n%2==1){
        n1=(n-1)/2+1;
        sum1=(n1*(2+(n1-1)*2))/2;
        sum2=((n1-1)*(4+(n1-2)*2))/2;
        printf("%lld",sum1-sum2);
    }
    else{
        n2=(n-2)/2+1;
        sum1=((n2-1)*(2+(n2-2)*2))/2;
        sum2=(n2*(4+(n2-1)*2))/2;
        printf("%lld",sum2-sum1);
    }
    return 0;
}
#20 
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
main()
{
    int A;
    printf("Enter the value");
    scanf("%d",&A);
    if(A%2==0)
    printf("%d is the even",A);
    else
    printf("%d is the odd",A);
    getch();
}
#21

why wrong answer?

  #include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
     long long int n,sumOfEven,sumOfOdd,result=0;
    while(1==scanf("%d",&n))
    {
        sumOfEven=0;
        sumOfOdd=0;
        for(int i=0; i<=n; i++)
        {
            if(i%2==0)
            {
                sumOfEven+=i;
            }
            else
            {
                sumOfOdd+=i;
            }
        }
        result=abs(sumOfEven-sumOfOdd);
        cout<<result<<endl;
    }


    return 0;
}
