Find the nth term of the series 0, 8, 64, 216, 512, . . .

Given an integer N, the task is to find the Nth term of the following series: 
 

0, 8, 64, 216, 512, 1000, 1728, . . . 
 

Examples: 
 

Input: N = 6 
Output: 1000
Input: N = 5 
Output: 512 
 

 

Approach: 
 

  • Given series 0, 8, 64, 216, 512, 1000, 1728, … can also be written as 0 * (02), 2 * (22), 4 * (42), 6 * (62), 8 * (82), 10 * (102), …
  • Observe that 0, 2, 4, 6, 10, … is in AP and the nth term of this series can be found using the formula term = a1 + (n – 1) * d where a1 is the first term, n is the term position and d is the common difference.
  • To get the term in the original series, term = term * (term2) i.e. term3.
  • Finally print the term.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:
 

C++




// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the nth term of the given series
long term(int n)
{
    // Common difference
    int d = 2;
 
    // First term
    int a1 = 0;
 
    // nth term
    int An = a1 + (n - 1) * d;
 
    // nth term of the given series
    An = pow(An, 3);
    return An;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int n = 5;
 
    cout << term(n);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java implementation of the approach
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
 
public class GFG {
 
    // Function to return the nth term of the given series
    static int nthTerm(int n)
    {
 
        // Common difference and first term
        int d = 2, a1 = 0;
 
        // nth term
        int An = a1 + (n - 1) * d;
 
        // nth term of the given series
        return (int)Math.pow(An, 3);
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        int n = 5;
        System.out.println(nthTerm(n));
    }
}


Python3




# Python3 implementation of the approach
 
# Function to return the nth term of the given series
def term(n):
     
    # Common difference
    d = 2
     
    # First term
    a1 = 0
     
    # nth term
    An = a1 +(n-1)*d
     
    # nth term of the given series
    An = An**3
    return An;
 
     
# Driver code
n = 5
print(term(n))


C#




// C# implementation of the approach
using System;
public class GFG {
 
    // Function to return the nth term of the given series
    static int nthTerm(int n)
    {
 
        // Common difference and first term
        int d = 2, a1 = 0;
 
        // nth term
        int An = a1 + (n - 1) * d;
 
        // nth term of the given series
        return (int)Math.Pow(An, 3);
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void Main()
    {
        int n = 5;
        Console. WriteLine(nthTerm(n));
    }
}

PHP




<?php
// PHP implementation of the approach
 
// Function to return the nth term of the given series
function term($n
 
    // Common difference
    $d = 2;
 
    // First term
    $a1 = 0;
 
    // nth term
    $An=$a1+($n-1)*$d;
 
    // nth term of the given series
    return pow($An, 3);
                      
   
// Driver code 
$n = 5;
echo term($n); 
?>


Javascript




<script>
 
// javascript implementation of the approach
 
// Function to return the nth term of the given series
function term(n) 
 
    // Common difference
    let d = 2;
 
    // First term
    let a1 = 0;
 
    // nth term
    An=a1+(n-1)*d;
 
    // nth term of the given series
    return Math.pow(An, 3);
                      
   
// Driver code 
let n = 5;
document.write( term(n));
