As the title implies, I'm doing a software that calculate and verify if the number inserted is a happy number (OR NOT). In COBOL language (For reference about what a happy number is https://mathworld.wolfram.com/HappyNumber.html).
Right now, my code doesnt calculate correctly if the number is happy or not (In the program HEY = Happy and HOY = not happy :C)
My question is, what am i doing wrong in the code? All i need now is to properly detect if its happy or not. Any help is well welcome.
This is my current code:
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. YOUR-PROGRAM-NAME.
DATA DIVISION.
FILE SECTION.
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 num PIC 9(36).
01 addc PIC 9(36).
01 rem PIC 9(36).
01 pow PIC 9(36).
01 toast PIC 9.
01 k PIC 999 VALUE 0.
01 l PIC 9(36).
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
MAIN-PROCEDURE.
DISPLAY"Escribe numero "
ACCEPT num
PERFORM WITH TEST AFTER UNTIL addc = 1
MOVE 0 TO addc
PERFORM WITH TEST AFTER UNTIL num = 0
DIVIDE num BY 10 GIVING num REMAINDER rem
MULTIPLY rem BY rem GIVING pow
MOVE pow TO addc
END-PERFORM
IF addc = 1
MOVE 1 TO toast
ELSE
MOVE addc TO num
ADD 1 TO k
IF k = 20
MOVE 1 TO addc
MOVE 0 TO toast
END-IF
END-IF
END-PERFORM
IF toast = 1
DISPLAY "HEY"
ELSE
DISPLAY "HOY"
END-IF
STOP RUN.
END PROGRAM YOUR-PROGRAM-NAME.
Also, as an extra question, how can i handle numbers above the maximum limit of 36? without using the equivalent of strings and chars in Cobol.
The line:
PERFORM UNTIL num > 0
makes the PERFORM loop to not enter, as num
is likely to be greater than 0. What you want to do is to execute the loop, getting all the digits from num UNTIL num is 0.
Besides,
MOVE pow TO addc
should be
ADD pow TO addc
