Task
Ethiopian multiplication
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

A method of multiplying integers using only addition, doubling, and halving.

Method:

  1. Take two numbers to be multiplied and write them down at the top of two columns.
  2. In the left-hand column repeatedly halve the last number, discarding any remainders, and write the result below the last in the same column, until you write a value of 1.
  3. In the right-hand column repeatedly double the last number and write the result below. stop when you add a result in the same row as where the left hand column shows 1.
  4. Examine the table produced and discard any row where the value in the left column is even.
  5. Sum the values in the right-hand column that remain to produce the result of multiplying the original two numbers together

For example: 17 × 34 

       17    34

Halving the first column: 

       17    34
        8
        4
        2
        1

Doubling the second column: 

       17    34
        8    68
        4   136 
        2   272
        1   544

Strike-out rows whose first cell is even: 

       17    34
        8    -- 
        4   --- 
        2   --- 
        1   544

Sum the remaining numbers in the right-hand column: 

       17    34
        8    -- 
        4   --- 
        2   --- 
        1   544
           ====
            578

So 17 multiplied by 34, by the Ethiopian method is 578.

The task is to define three named functions/methods/procedures/subroutines:

  1. one to halve an integer,
  2. one to double an integer, and
  3. one to state if an integer is even.

Use these functions to create a function that does Ethiopian multiplication.

C++

Using C++ templates, these kind of tasks can be implemented as meta-programs. The program runs at compile time, and the result is statically saved into regularly compiled code. Here is such an implementation without tutor, since there is no mechanism in C++ to output messages during program compilation. <lang cpp>template<int N> struct Half { 

       enum { Result = N >> 1 };

};

template<int N> struct Double { 

       enum { Result = N << 1 };

};

template<int N> struct IsEven { 

       static const bool Result = (N & 1) == 0;

};

template<int Multiplier, int Multiplicand> struct EthiopianMultiplication { 

       template<bool Cond, int Plier, int RunningTotal>
       struct AddIfNot
       {
               enum { Result = Plier + RunningTotal };
       };
       template<int Plier, int RunningTotal>
       struct AddIfNot <true, Plier, RunningTotal>
       {
               enum { Result = RunningTotal };
       };

       template<int Plier, int Plicand, int RunningTotal>
       struct Loop
       {
               enum { Result = Loop<Half<Plier>::Result, Double<Plicand>::Result,
                      AddIfNot<IsEven<Plier>::Result, Plicand, RunningTotal >::Result >::Result };
       };
       template<int Plicand, int RunningTotal>
       struct Loop <0, Plicand, RunningTotal>
       {
               enum { Result = RunningTotal };

Common Lisp

Common Lisp already has evenp, but all three of halve, double, and even-p are locally defined within ethiopian-multiply. (Note that the termination condition is (zerop l) because we terminate 'after' the iteration wherein the left column contains 1, and (halve 1) is 0.)

Forth

<lang forth>: e* ( x y -- x*y ) 

 dup 0= if nip exit then
 over 2* over 2/ recurse
 swap 1 and if + else nip then ;</lang>

The author of Forth, Chuck Moore, designed a similar primitive into his MISC Forth microprocessors. The +* instruction is a multiply step: it adds S to T if A is odd, then shifts both A and T right one. The idea is that you only need to perform as many of these multiply steps as you have significant bits in the operand. (See his core instruction set for details.)

Ruby

Iterative and recursive implementations here. I've chosen to highlight the example 20*5 which I think is more illustrative. <lang ruby>def even(x); x.even?; end def halve(x); x/2; end def double(x); x*2; end

  1. iterative

def ethopian_multiply(a, b) 

 product = 0
 while a >= 1 
   p [a, b, even(a) ? "STRIKE" : "KEEP"] if $DEBUG
   product += b if not even(a)
   a = halve(a)
   b = double(b)
 end
 product

end

  1. recursive

def rec_ethopian_multiply(a, b) 

 return 0 if a < 1
 p [a, b, even(a) ? "STRIKE" : "KEEP"] if $DEBUG
 (even(a) ? 0 : b) + rec_ethopian_multiply(halve(a), double(b))

end

$DEBUG = true # $DEBUG also set to true if "-d" option given a, b = 20, 5 puts "#{a} * #{b} = #{ethopian_multiply(a,b)}"; puts</lang>

Output: 

[20, 5, "STRIKE"]
[10, 10, "STRIKE"]
[5, 20, "KEEP"]
[2, 40, "STRIKE"]
[1, 80, "KEEP"]
20 * 5 = 100

Ursala

This solution makes use of the functions odd, double, and half, which respectively check the parity, double a given natural number, or perform truncating division by two. These functions are normally imported from the nat library but defined here explicitly for the sake of completeness. <lang Ursala>odd = ~&ihB double = ~&iNiCB half = ~&itB</lang> The functions above are defined in terms of bit manipulations exploiting the concrete representations of natural numbers. The remaining code treats natural numbers instead as abstract types by way of the library API, and uses the operators for distribution (*-), triangular iteration (|\), and filtering (*~) among others. <lang Ursala>#import nat

Smaller version

Using old style 16 bit registers created in debug

The functions to halve double and even are coded inline. To half a value 

  shr,1

to double a value 

  shl,1

to test if the value is even

<lang asm>test,01 jz Even Odd: Even:</lang>
