Three Doubled Numbers - Google Top Interview Questions


Problem Statement :


Given a list of integers nums, return the number of triples i < j < k such that nums[i] * 2 = nums[j] and nums[j] * 2 = nums[k].

Constraints

0 ≤ n ≤ 100,000 where n is the length of nums

Example 1

Input

nums = [1, 0, 2, 4, 4]

Output

2

Explanation

There's [1, 2, 4] (with indices 0,2, and 3) and [1, 2, 4] (with indices 0, 2, 4)



Example 2

Input

nums = [4, 2, 1]

Output

0

                        Solution in C++ :

int findPairs(vector<int> arr) {
    int ans = 0;
    map<int,int> m;
    for(int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i++) {
          if(arr[i] % 2 == 0) {
                ans += m[arr[i]/2];
         }
         m[arr[i]] += 1;
