Problem Statement for "PrefixComposite"

Problem Statement

A number is composite if it is a positive integer with at least three divisors. The smallest few composite numbers are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, ...

A number is called prefix-composite if all its non-empty prefixes are composite. For example, the number 87343 is prefix-composite becase each of the numbers 8, 87, 873, 8734, and 87343 is composite.

Given two integers A and B, find the smallest and the greatest prefix-composite number in the closed interval [A, B]. Return a long[] with those two elements in the order {smallest, greatest}. If there are no prefix-composite numbers in the given interval, return an empty long[] instead.

Definition

Class:
PrefixComposite
Method:
minMax
Parameters:
long, long
Returns:
long[]
Method signature:
long[] minMax(long A, long B)
(be sure your method is public)

Constraints

  • A and B will be between 1 and 10^11, inclusive.
  • A will be smaller than or equal to B.

Examples

  1. 1

    3

    Returns: { }

    The number 1 is neither composite nor prime, and the numbers 2 and 3 are prime.

  2. 1

    4

    Returns: {4, 4 }

    If there is exactly one prefix-composite number in the given interval, the return value should contain it twice - it is both the smallest and the greatest one in that range.

  3. 123

    838

    Returns: {400, 828 }

  4. 409

    87343

    Returns: {420, 87343 }

  8. 37337999

    37337999

    Returns: { }

    Fun fact: the number 37,337,999 is prefix-prime - each of its prefixes is prime.
