>>how to find the no. of digits in the product of two numbers without >>multiplying??
what do u mean by that, can't we do * on them or what ??? well i don't know if it is correct,but yeah before going to bed i want to give last shot. constrain : multiplication is not allowed, if we have to multiply 2 number a and b . we use either a*b or we add a, b times, will result into same answer. Now we get the multiplication of a and b after that we can use the same bit count method to count the no of digits. P.S i doubt question is wrong,else wouldn't have long discussion for this question. Please correct me if m wrong. On Sep 20, 7:47 pm, Dave <dave_and_da...@juno.com> wrote: > @Rahul.
