Problem H

The Land of Justice

Input: standard input

Output: standard output

Time Limit: 4 seconds

In the Land of Justice the selling price of everything is fixed all over the country. Nobody can buy a thing and sell it in double price. But, that created problems for the businessmen. They left their business and went to the production. So, after some days everybody was in production and nobody in business. And the people didn’t get their necessary things though the country was self-sufficient in every sector.

The government became very much anxious. But, they were intelligent enough to call the mathematicians.

The mathematicians gave a solution.  They suggested setting the surface area of an object as its selling-unit instead of its volume. Actually the clever mathematicians were very much interested to establish their own business.

Now, the government asks the programmers to build the software that would calculate the profit things.

Here your job is to calculate the business profit for a solid sphere. A businessman buys a complete sphere and to maximize his profit he divides it inn equal parts. All cut should go through the axis of the sphere. And every part should look like the picture below:

Input

You are given a sequence of integers N (0 < N < 2³¹), indicating the numbers of parts of the sphere. The input file is terminated with a negative number. This number should not be processed.

Output

Calculate the profit over the sold pieces. The result should be in percentage and rounded to the nearest integer.

 

Sample input

Sample output

int main()
{
    double percent, n;
    while(scanf("%lf", &n) == 1 && n >= 0)
    {
        if(n != 1) percent = floor((n*1.0/4)*100+0.5);
        else percent = 0;
        printf("%.0lf%%\n", percent);
    }

    return 0;
}

解题思路：
题目的意思根据背景理解可能更简单，首先是由于政府的政策导致商家的减少，而此时数学家提出意见说一件物品以它的表面积为销售单位而不是体积。这种方法被政府接受了，数学家为了盈利其实也想经商，而这时题目模拟出来了：就是给你一个球，本来的表面积特定的，但为了得到利润，把它劈开相同的大小的块，此时表面积肯定会增加，而相对于原来增加了多少的百分比，这就需要你去计算的。

刚开始可是题目都没读懂，而且还是用了整型，并没有考虑溢出的情况，WA了几次。
