Description
The sum problem can be formulated as follows: given four Lists A, B, C, D of integer values, compute how many quadruplet (A, B, C, D) ε a x B x C x D are such that A + B + C + D = 0. in the following, we assume that all lists have the same size N.
Input
The first line of the input file contains the size of the lists N (this value can be as large as 4000 ). we then have n lines containing four integer values (with absolute value as large as 228) that belong respectively to A, B, C and D.
Output
For each input file, your program has to write the number quadruplets whose sum is zero.
Sample Input
6-45 22 42 -16-41 -27 56 30-36 53 -37 77-36 30 -75 -4626 -38 -10 62-32 -54 -6 45
Sample output
5
Hint
Sample explanation: indeed, the sum of the five following quadruplets is zero: (-45,-27, 42, 30), (26, 30,-10,-46 ), (-32, 22, 56,-46), (-32, 30,-75, 77), (-32,-54, 56, 30 ).
Question: Find a number for each column to obtain a sequence with the sum of 0. There are several different solutions for finding an sum for the number of Column 1 and 2, and for the number of column 3 and 4, and then perform a binary search.
