Department numbers

From Rosetta Code
Task
Department numbers
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

There is a highly organized city that has decided to assign a number to each of their departments:

  •   police department
  •   sanitation department
  •   fire department


Each department can have a number between   1   and   7   (inclusive).

The three department numbers are to be unique (different from each other) and must add up to   12.

The Chief of the Police doesn't like odd numbers and wants to have an even number for his department.


Task

Write a computer program which outputs all valid combinations.


Possible output   (for the 1st and 14th solutions):

 --police--  --sanitation--  --fire-- 
     2             3            7 
     6             5            1

Fortran

This uses the ability standardised in F90 of labelling a DO-loop so that its start and end are linked by usage of the same name, with this checked by the compiler. Further, in avoiding the use of the dreaded GO TO statement, the CYCLE statement can be employed instead with the same effect, and it too can bear the same name so that it is clear which loop is involved. These names prefix the DO-loop, and so, force some additional indentation. They are not statement labels and must be unique themselves. Notably, they cannot be the same text as the name of the index variable for their DO-loop, unlike the lead given by BASIC with its FOR I ... NEXT I arrangement.

The method is just to generate all the possibilities, discarding those that fail the specified tests. However, the requirement that the codes add up to twelve means that after the first two are chosen the third is determined, and blandly looping through all the possibilities is too much brute force and ignorance, though other collections of rules could make that bearable.

Since the modernisers of Fortran made a point of specifying that it does not specify the manner of evaluation of compound boolean expressions, specifically, that there is to be no reliance on Short-circuit_evaluation, both parts of the compound expression of the line labelled 5 "may" be evaluated even though the first may have determined the result. Prior to the introduction of LOGICAL variables with F66, one employed integer arithmetic as is demonstrated in the arithmetic-IF test of the line labelled 6. On the B6700, this usage ran faster than the corresponding boolean expression - possibly because there was no test for short-circuiting the expression when the first part of a multiply was zero...

Note that the syntax enables two classes of labels: the old-style numerical label in columns one to five, and the special label-like prefix of a DO-loop that is not in columns one to five. And yes, a line can have both.

      INTEGER P,S,F	!Department codes for Police, Sanitation, and Fire. Values 1 to 7 only.
    1  PP:DO P = 2,7,2	!The police demand an even number. They're special and use violence.
    2   SS:DO S = 1,7		!The sanitation department accepts any value.
    3        IF (P.EQ.S) CYCLE SS	!But it must differ from the others.
    4        F = 12 - (P + S)		!The fire department accepts any number, but the sum must be twelve.
    5        IF (F.LE.0 .OR. F.GT.7) CYCLE SS	!Ensure that the only option is within range.
    6        IF ((F - S)*(F - P)) 7,8,7		!And F is to differ from S and from P
    7        WRITE (6,"(3I2)") P,S,F		!If we get here, we have a possible set.
    8      END DO SS		!Next S
    9    END DO PP	!Next P.
      END	!Well, that was straightforward.

Bare minimum:

             True -> [(x, y, z)]
             _ -> []

or, resugaring this into list comprehension format:

main :: IO ()
main =
  mapM_
    print
    [ (x, y, z)
    | x <- [2, 4, 6] 
    , y <- [1 .. 7]

    , y /= z && 1 <= z && z <= 7 ]

Do notation:

  do x <- [2, 4, 6]
     y <- [1 .. 7]
     z <- [12 - (x + y)]
     if y /= z && 1 <= z && z <= 7
       then [(x, y, z)]

Unadorned brute force – more than enough at this small scale:

Reaching again for a little more syntactic sugar, the options function above could also be re-written either as a list comprehension,

import Control.Monad (guard)

options :: Int -> Int -> Int -> [(Int, Int, Int)]
options lo hi total =
  let ds = [lo .. hi]
  in do x <- filter even ds
        y <- filter (/= x) ds
        let z = total - (x + y)
        guard $ y /= z && lo <= z && z <= hi

Solution:

alluniq=: # = #@~.           NB. check items are unique
addto12=: 12 = +/            NB. check items add to 12
iseven=: -.@(2&|)            NB. check items are even
policeeven=: {.@iseven       NB. check first item is even
conditions=: policeeven *. addto12 *. alluniq

Validnums=: >: i.7           NB. valid Department numbers

getDeptNums=: [: (#~ conditions"1) Validnums {~ permfrom

Note that we are only showing the distinct valid combinations here, not all valid permutations of those combinations. (Valid permutations would be: swapping the last two values in a combination, and all permutations of 2 4 6.)

Another variation would be more constraint based, blindly implementing the rules of the task and yielding all valid permutations. (Shown here with the number of possibilities at each step):

     NB. 3 departments, 1..7 in each
     #rule1=. >,{3#<1+i.7
343
     NB. total must be 12, numbers must be unique
     #rule2=. (#~ ((3=#@~.) * 12=+/)"1) rule1
30
     NB. no odd numbers in police department (first department)

jq

In this section, we present three solutions.

The first illustrates how a straightforward generate-and-test algorithm using familiar for-loops can be translated into jq.

The second illustrates how essentially the same algorithm can be written in a more economical way, without sacrificing comprehensibility.

The third illustrates how the built-in function `combinations/1' can be used to achieve greater efficiency.

The solutions in all cases are presented as a stream of JSON objects such as:

   {"fire":1,"police":4,"sanitation":7}

as these are self-explanatory, though it would be trivial to present them in another format. For brevity, the solutions are omitted here.

Nested for-loop

def check(fire; police; sanitation):
    (fire != police) and (fire != sanitation) and (police != sanitation)
    and (fire + police + sanitation == 12)
    and (police % 2 == 0);

range(1;8) as $fire
| range(1;8) as $police
| range(1;8) as $sanitation
| select( check($fire; $police; $sanitation) )
| {$fire, $police, $sanitation}

In Brief

{fire: range(1;8), police: range(1;8), sanitation: range(1;8)}
| select( .fire != .police and .fire != .sanitation and .police != .sanitation
      and .fire + .police + .sanitation == 12
      and .police % 2 == 0 )

combinations

  [range(1;8)]
  | combinations(3)
  | select( add == 12 and .[1] % 2 == 0)
  | {fire: .[0], police: .[1], sanitation: .[2]}

Using a constraint solver

A problem this trivial is amenable to brute-force solutions such as the above, but it is a good example of the type of problem for which a constraint solver can be useful. This is how one could solve it using the `python-constraint` library:

import constraint

depts = ( 'police', 'sanitation', 'fire' )

p = constraint.Problem()

for var in depts:
    p.addVariable(var, range(1,8))

p.addConstraint(constraint.AllDifferentConstraint())
p.addConstraint(lambda *vars: sum(vars)==12, depts)
p.addConstraint(lambda p: p%2==0, ('police',))

for s in p.getSolutions():
    print(s)
Output:
{'police': 6, 'fire': 5, 'sanitation': 1}
{'police': 6, 'fire': 4, 'sanitation': 2}
{'police': 6, 'fire': 2, 'sanitation': 4}
{'police': 6, 'fire': 1, 'sanitation': 5}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 6, 'sanitation': 2}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 7, 'sanitation': 1}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 5, 'sanitation': 3}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 3, 'sanitation': 5}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 2, 'sanitation': 6}
{'police': 4, 'fire': 1, 'sanitation': 7}
{'police': 2, 'fire': 4, 'sanitation': 6}
{'police': 2, 'fire': 6, 'sanitation': 4}
{'police': 2, 'fire': 7, 'sanitation': 3}
{'police': 2, 'fire': 3, 'sanitation': 7}

R

We solve this task in two lines. The rest of the code is to make the result look nice.

allPermutations <- setNames(expand.grid(seq(2, 7, by = 2), 1:7, 1:7), c("Police", "Sanitation", "Fire"))
solution <- allPermutations[which(rowSums(allPermutations)==12 & apply(allPermutations, 1, function(x) !any(duplicated(x)))),]
solution <- solution[order(solution$Police, solution$Sanitation),]
row.names(solution) <- paste0("Solution #", seq_len(nrow(solution)), ":")
print(solution)

We filter the Cartesian product of the lists of candidate department numbers.

#lang racket
(cons '(police fire sanitation)
      (filter (λ (pfs) (and (not (check-duplicates pfs))
                            (= 12 (apply + pfs))
                            pfs))
              (cartesian-product (range 2 8 2) (range 1 8) (range 1 8))))

Functional approach:

let res = [2, 4, 6].map({x in
  return (1...7)
      .filter({ $0 != x })
      .map({y -> (Int, Int, Int)? in
        let z = 12 - (x + y)

        guard y != z && 1 <= z && z <= 7 else {
          return nil
        }

        return (x, y, z)
      }).compactMap({ $0 })
}).flatMap({ $0 })

for result in res {
  print(result)
}

Iterative approach:

var res = [(Int, Int, Int)]()

for x in [2, 4, 6] {
  for y in 1...7 where x != y {
    let z = 12 - (x + y)

    guard y != z && 1 <= z && z <= 7 else {
      continue
    }

    res.append((x, y, z))

Tcl

Since Tool Command Language is a multi-paradigm language, very different solutions are possible.

VERSION A - using procedures and list operations

# Procedure named ".." returns list of integers from 1 to max.
proc .. max {
  for {set i 1} {$i <= $max} {incr i} {
    lappend l $i
  }
  return $l
}

# Procedure named "anyEqual" returns true if any elements are equal,
# false otherwise.
proc anyEqual l {
  if {[llength [lsort -unique $l]] != [llength $l]} {
    return 1
  }
  return 0
}

# Procedure named "odd" tells whether a value is odd or not.
proc odd n {
  expr $n %2 != 0
}


# Procedure named "sum" sums its parameters.
proc sum args {
  expr [join $args +]
}


# Create lists of candidate numbers using proc ".."
set sanitation [.. 7]
set fire $sanitation
# Filter even numbers for police stations (remove odd ones).
set police [lmap e $sanitation {
  if [odd $e] continue
  set e
}]


# Try all combinations and display acceptable ones.
set valid 0
foreach p $police {
  foreach s $sanitation {
    foreach f $fire {
      # Check for equal elements in list.
      if [anyEqual [list $p $s $f]] continue
      # Check for sum of list elements.
      if {[sum $p $s $f] != 12} continue
      puts "$p $s $f"
      incr valid
    }
  }
}
puts "$valid valid combinations found."

VERSION B - using simple for loops with number literals

set valid 0
for {set police 2} {$police <= 6} {incr police 2} {
  for {set sanitation 1} {$sanitation <= 7} {incr sanitation} {
    if {$police == $sanitation} continue
    for {set fire 1} {$fire <= 7} {incr fire} {
      if {$police == $fire || $sanitation == $fire} continue
      if {[expr $police + $sanitation + $fire] != 12} continue
      puts "$police $sanitation $fire"
      incr valid
    }
  }
}
puts "$valid valid combinations found."

VERSION C - using simple for loops with number variables

set min 1
set max 7
set valid 0
for {set police $min} {$police <= $max} {incr police} {
  if {[expr $police % 2] == 1} continue ;# filter even numbers for police
  for {set sanitation $min} {$sanitation <= $max} {incr sanitation} {
    if {$police == $sanitation} continue
    for {set fire $min} {$fire <= $max} {incr fire} {
      if {$police == $fire || $sanitation == $fire} continue
      if {[expr $police + $sanitation + $fire] != 12} continue
      puts "$police $sanitation $fire"
      incr valid
    }
  }
}

puts "$valid valid combinations found."

VERSION D - using list filter with lambda expressions

# Procedure named ".." returns list of integers from 1 to max.
proc .. max {
  for {set i 1} {$i <= $max} {incr i} {
    lappend l $i
  }
  return $l
}


# Procedure named "..." returns list of n lists of integers from 1 to max.
proc ... {max n} {
  foreach i [.. $n] {
    lappend result [.. $max]
  }
  return $result
}

# Procedure named "crossProduct" returns cross product of lists
proc crossProduct {listOfLists} {
  set result [list [list]]
  foreach factor $listOfLists {
    set newResult {}
    foreach combination $result {
      foreach elt $factor {
        lappend newResult [linsert $combination end $elt]
      }
    }
    set result $newResult
  }
  return $result
}

# Procedure named "filter" filters list elements by using a 
# condition λ (lambda) expression
proc filter {l condition} {
  return [lmap el $l {
    if {![apply $condition $el]} continue
    set el
  }]
}

# Here the fun using lambda expressions begins. The following is the main program.

# Set λ expressions
set λPoliceEven {_ {expr [lindex $_ 0] % 2 == 0}}
set λNoEquals {_ {expr [llength [lsort -unique $_]] == [llength $_]}}
set λSumIs12 {_ {expr [join $_ +] == 12}}

# Create all combinations and filter acceptable ones
set numbersOk [filter [filter [filter [crossProduct [... 7 3]] ${λPoliceEven}] ${λSumIs12}] ${λNoEquals}]
puts [join $numbersOk \n]
puts "[llength $numbersOk] valid combinations found."

Zig using an iterator

Works with: Zig version 0.11.0

Using a Zig struct to create an iterator is a common pattern in Zig.

const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() !void {
    const stdout = std.io.getStdOut().writer();

    try stdout.writeAll("Police  Sanitation  Fire\n");
    try stdout.writeAll("------  ----------  ----\n");

    var it = SolutionIterator.init();
    while (it.next()) |solution| {
        try stdout.print(
            "  {d}         {d}         {d}\n",
            .{ solution.police, solution.sanitation, solution.fire },
        );
    }
}

/// 3 bit unsigned (u3) limits 0 <= department <= 7
const Departments = packed struct {
    police: u3,
    sanitation: u3,
    fire: u3,
};

const DepartmentsUnion = packed union {
    departments: Departments,
    together: u9,
};

const SolutionIterator = struct {
    // police is initialized to one as adding one is the first operation in next()
    // with the result .police == 2 (an even number) on the first pass.
    u: DepartmentsUnion = .{ .departments = .{ .police = 1, .sanitation = 1, .fire = 1 } },

    /// init() returns an initialised structure.
    /// Using init() is a common Zig pattern.
    fn init() SolutionIterator {
        return SolutionIterator{};
    }

    fn next(self: *SolutionIterator) ?Departments {
        if (self.u.together == 0) return null; // already completed

        while (true) {
            const ov = @addWithOverflow(self.u.together, 1);
            if (ov[1] == 1) {
                self.u.together = 0;
                return null; // overflowed, completed
            } else {
                self.u.together = ov[0];
                // None can be zero
                if (self.u.departments.police == 0) self.u.departments.police = 2; // even
                if (self.u.departments.sanitation == 0) self.u.departments.sanitation = 1;
                if (self.u.departments.fire == 0) self.u.departments.fire = 1;
                // Police must be even
                if (self.u.departments.police & 1 == 1)
                    continue;
                // No two can be the same
                if (self.u.departments.police == self.u.departments.sanitation) continue;
                if (self.u.departments.sanitation == self.u.departments.fire) continue;
                if (self.u.departments.fire == self.u.departments.police) continue;
                // Must total twelve (maximum sum 7 + 7 + 7 = 21 requires 5 bits)
                const p = @as(u5, self.u.departments.police);
                const s = @as(u5, self.u.departments.sanitation);
                const f = @as(u5, self.u.departments.fire);
                if (p + s + f != 12)
                    continue;

                return self.u.departments;
            }
        }
    }
};

Utils.Helpers.pickNFrom(3,[1..7].walk())    // 35 combos
.filter(fcn(numbers){ numbers.sum(0)==12 }) // which all sum to 12 (==5)
.println();
Output:
L(L(1,4,7),L(1,5,6),L(2,3,7),L(2,4,6),L(3,4,5))

Note: The sum of three odd numbers is odd, so a+b+c=12 means at least one even nmber (1 even, two odd or 3 even). Futher, 2a+b=12, a,b in (2,4,6) has one solution: a=2,b=4

For a table with repeated solutions using nested loops:

println("Police  Fire  Sanitation");
foreach p,f,s in ([2..7,2], [1..7], [1..7])
   { if((p!=s!=f) and p+f+s==12) println(p,"\t",f,"\t",s) }
Output:

2	4	6
2	6	4
2	7	3

4	2	6
4	3	5
