Java Program to Display Armstrong Number Between Two Intervals

In this program, you'll learn to display all armstrong numbers between two given intervals, low and high, in Java.

To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of the following Java programming topics:

A positive integer is called an Armstrong number of order n if

abcd... = aⁿ + bⁿ + cⁿ + dⁿ + ...

In case of an Armstrong number of 3 digits, the sum of cubes of each digit is equal to the number itself. For example:

153 = 1*1*1 + 5*5*5 + 3*3*3  // 153 is an Armstrong number.

This program is built on the concept of how to check whether an integer is an Armstrong number or not.

Example: Armstrong Numbers Between Two Integers

class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {

    int low = 999, high = 99999;

    for(int number = low + 1; number < high; ++number) {
      int digits = 0;
      int result = 0;
      int originalNumber = number;

      // number of digits calculation
      while (originalNumber != 0) {
        originalNumber /= 10;
        ++digits;
      }

      originalNumber = number;

      // result contains sum of nth power of its digits
      while (originalNumber != 0) {
        int remainder = originalNumber % 10;
        result += Math.pow(remainder, digits);
        originalNumber /= 10;
      }

      if (result == number) {
        System.out.print(number + " ");
      }
    }
  }
}
