Powerful Integers Problem


Description

LeetCode Problem 970.

Given three integers x, y, and bound, return a list of all the powerful integers that have a value less than or equal to bound.

An integer is powerful if it can be represented as x^i + y^j for some integers i >= 0 and j >= 0.

You may return the answer in any order. In your answer, each value should occur at most once.

Example 1:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
Input: x = 2, y = 3, bound = 10
Output: [2,3,4,5,7,9,10]
Explanation:
2 = 2^0 + 3^0
3 = 2^1 + 3^0
4 = 2^0 + 3^1
5 = 2^1 + 3^1
7 = 2^2 + 3^1
9 = 2^3 + 3^0
10 = 2^0 + 3^2

Example 2:

1
2
Input: x = 3, y = 5, bound = 15
Output: [2,4,6,8,10,14]

Constraints:

  • 1 <= x, y <= 100
  • 0 <= bound <= 10^6
