SUMFOUR - 4 values whose sum is 0
The SUM problem can be formulated as follows: given four lists A, B, C, D of integer values, compute how many quadruplet (a, b, c, d ) belongs to A x B x C x D are such that a + b + c + d = 0 . In the following, we assume that all lists have the same size n
Input
The first line of the input file contains the size of the lists n (this value can be as large as 4000). We then have n lines containing four integer values (with absolute value as large as 228 ) that belong respectively to A, B, C and D .
(Edited: n <= 2500)
Output
Output should be printed on a single line.
Example
Input: 6 -45 22 42 -16 -41 -27 56 30 -36 53 -37 77 -36 30 -75 -46 26 -38 -10 62 -32 -54 -6 45 Output: 5

Using STL equal_range |

Sadly, some datasets have nearly no zero-summing quadruplets, rendering a large assortment of possible optimizations useless. Most people commenting here seem to confuse optimization with not doing stupid stuff, and noone claiming to have done it in O(n^2) has runtime to prove it. I'm still bothered to find the efficient approach candide hinted to, but other than that the problem seems like a waste of time after getting the green bar. |

Just use equal range in place of unordered_map. Although the complexity was better using unordered_map but equal_range get AC whereas unordered_map gave TLE. |

tle for O(n*n) also,using unordered map

How did 1st ranker got it in 0.01sec? mine took 2+sec with O(n*n*log(n))... Last edit: 2019-06-01 09:04:09 |

Note that equal elements in a list are considered to be distinct |

unordered_map got me TLE, however equal_range passed.

AC in first go using upper_bound() and lower_bound() |
