Given a number, we can form a number chain by
Note that 0 is a permitted digit. The number of distinct numbers in the chain is the length of the chain.
You are to write a program that reads numbers and outputs the length of the chain for each number read.
For example:
Input: 123456789 1. 987654321 - 123456789 = 864197532 2. 987654321 - 123456789 = 864197532 Chain length = 2 You should output: 2 Input: 1234 1. 4321 - 1234 = 3087 2. 8730 - 378 = 8352 3. 8532 - 2358 = 6174 4. 7641 - 1467 = 6174 Chain length = 4 You should output: 4 Input: 444 1. 444 - 444 = 0 2. 0 - 0 = 0 Chain length = 2 You should output: 2
The input consists of a sequence of positive numbers, all less than
, each on its own line, terminated by 0. The input file contains at most 10 numbers.
The output only have to print the chain length, no chain will contain more than 1000 distinct numbers.
Note that there is a '\n' at the end of each line.
