Sum It Up 1

[admin]

Given a number N, find the number of ways to write it as a sum of two or more consecutive positive integers, e.g. 15 = 7+8, 1+2+3+4+5, 4+5+6. The answer should be 3.

Just want to make sure.

I submit my code, but it comes up with error with error cpu_exceeded.
So I changed my algorithm , but still come up with the same error.

Thing I take attention in this case is it is always error cpu_execeeded with the same cpu_time, although I changed my algorithm and when I try to retrieve my code in the source code editor, all of my submitted code is the old code(not the new one), although when I try to retrieve my code in the submission board, it is the new code.

My question is, is this an error from the server, so every time i try to submit the code, it only reads the first code I submit, or it is an error from my code?(Which mean I have to reconstruct again the code)

Thanks for the attention.

The robot tries to stop the submission at 0.1 second after it exceeds the limit. That's why if the cpu limit is 3 second, every submission that exceeds that limits should show 3.1s execution (however sometimes it runs a bit longer if the robot cannot intercept but that varies depending on the languages).

I looked at your solutions, they seem different. When you select the drop-down menu "Load submission" you should have the choice to pick which one of your older submissions you want to load. I just tested it and it worked as expected.

how many inputs and what is the largest input?

Unless I am mistaken, it seems that your example is wrong, there is another series for 15:
15 = -6+-5+-4+-3+-2+-1+0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8
This sequence fits your definition, "sum of two or more consecutive integers", perfectly.
If we can't use negative integers, then the problem statement should reflect that.

Ok, we fixed the description: it's positive integer only.

Just the interesting test case - the digit 9000000000000001. The output should be 7, it takes about 15 ms for the c solution
