Go Language - Program to Check Armstrong Number

Hello everyone, today we will create a Go program to check if the given number is an Armstrong number or not. An Armstrong number is a positive n-digit number that is equal to the sum of the nth powers of their digits. 

For example,

• 2 is an Armstrong number.

         2 * 1 = 2

• 1634 is an Armstrong number.

          1 + 1296 + 81 + 256 = 1643

• 407 is an Armstrong number.

          64 +0+ 343 = 407

Some other Armstrong numbers are 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 153, 370, 371, 4071634, 8208, 9474, 54748, 92727, 93084, 548834, 1741725, 4210818, 9800817, 9926315, 24678050, 24678051, 88593477, 146511208, 472335975, 534494836.

Example 1: Let’s create a Go program that checks if the given number is an Armstrong number or not.

/*  Go program that checks if the given number is an
 *   Armstrong number or not.
 */
package main
import "fmt"
// Main function
func main() {
    IsArmstrong(371)
    IsArmstrong(431)
    IsArmstrong(1)
    IsArmstrong(1634)
}
// Function to calculate x raised to the power y
func Power(x int, y int) int {
    if y == 0 {
        return 1
    }
    if y%2 == 0 {
        return Power(x, y/2) * Power(x, y/2)
    }
    return x * Power(x, y/2) * Power(x, y/2)
}
//Function to calculate order of the number
func Order(x int) int {
    n := 0
    for x != 0 {
        n++
        x = x / 10
    }
    return n
}
//Function to check if the number is Armstrong or not
func IsArmstrong(x int) {
    // Calling order function
    n := Order(x)
    temp, sum := x, 0
    for temp != 0 {
        r := temp % 10
        sum = sum + Power(r, n)
        temp = temp / 10
    }
    // If satisfies Armstrong condition
    if sum == x {
        fmt.Println(x, "is an Armstrong")
    } else {
        fmt.Println(x, "Not an Armstrong")
    }
}

Output:

Example 2: Input number from standard input,

/*  Go program that checks if the number from the standard input is an
 *   Armstrong number or not.
 */
package main
import "fmt"
// Main function
func main() {
    var number int
    fmt.Println("Enter an integer value : ")
    _, err := fmt.Scanf("%d", &number)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
    }
    IsArmstrong(number)
}
// Function to calculate x raised to the power y
func Power(x int, y int) int {
    if y == 0 {
        return 1
    }
    if y%2 == 0 {
        return Power(x, y/2) * Power(x, y/2)
    }
    return x * Power(x, y/2) * Power(x, y/2)
}
//Function to calculate order of the number
func Order(x int) int {
    n := 0
    for x != 0 {
        n++
        x = x / 10
    }
    return n
}
//Function to check if the number is Armstrong or not
func IsArmstrong(x int) {
    // Calling order function
    n := Order(x)
    temp, sum := x, 0
    for temp != 0 {
        r := temp % 10
        sum = sum + Power(r, n)
        temp = temp / 10
    }
    // If satisfies Armstrong condition
    if sum == x {
        fmt.Println(x, "is an Armstrong")
    } else {
        fmt.Println(x, "Not an Armstrong")
    }
}
