I have a problem: Given two numbers in l and r where l<=r and can be as large as 1e18, I want to count the number of palindrome numbers in the range l to r such that they are a square of some palindrome number.
For example, I have L=4 and R=1000
ans = 4 , numbers are 4, 9, 121, 464.
My code:
I am getting the wrong answer on this test case
L=92904622 R=232747148
My answer is 3 but the correct answer is 6.
My approach is to generate all palindromes of length at most 10 and then check if their square is also a palindrome.
I am generating palindromes as follows,
For length 1 I have 10 palindromes from 0 to 9 and for length 2 I have 9 palindromes of the form {11, 22,.., 99}.
Now for forming l length palindrome I simply append digits 1 to 9 at the beginning and the end to each of the generated palindromes of length l-2
Can someone point out what am I doing wrong??
Any help is appreciated.
