Given a number X which represents the floor of a matchstick pyramid, write a program to print the total number of matchstick required to form a pyramid of matchsticks of x floors.
Examples:
Input : X = 1 Output : 3 Input : X = 2 Output : 9
This is mainly an extension of triangular numbers. For a number X, the matchstick required will be three times of X-th triangular numbers, i.e., (3*X*(X+1))/2
# Python program to find X-th triangular # matchstick number def numberOfSticks(x): return ( 3 * x * (x + 1 )) / 2 # main() print ( int (numberOfSticks( 7 ))) |
Output:
84
