1364 Tuple With Same Product

Tuple with Same Product image

Given an array nums of distinct positive integers, return the number of tuples *(a, b, c, d) such that a * b = c * d where a, b, c, and d are elements of nums, and a != b != c != d.*

 

Example 1:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
**Input:** nums = [2,3,4,6]
**Output:** 8
**Explanation:** There are 8 valid tuples:
(2,6,3,4) , (2,6,4,3) , (6,2,3,4) , (6,2,4,3)
(3,4,2,6) , (4,3,2,6) , (3,4,6,2) , (4,3,6,2)

Example 2:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
**Input:** nums = [1,2,4,5,10]
**Output:** 16
**Explanation:** There are 16 valid tuples:
(1,10,2,5) , (1,10,5,2) , (10,1,2,5) , (10,1,5,2)
(2,5,1,10) , (2,5,10,1) , (5,2,1,10) , (5,2,10,1)
(2,10,4,5) , (2,10,5,4) , (10,2,4,5) , (10,2,5,4)
(4,5,2,10) , (4,5,10,2) , (5,4,2,10) , (5,4,10,2)

 

Constraints:

1
2
3
1 <= nums.length <= 1000
1 <= nums[i] <= 104
All elements in nums are **distinct**.

            }
        }
    }

    res := 0
    // 4-> 8
    // 6 -> 24 
    // a b c d perm -> 8
    // ab cd
    // ab cd ef-> 8
    // ab cd, ba cd, ab dc, ba dc, 
    // groups of v / 2 -> from this select 2
    // groups of 4/ 2 = 2 -> from this select 2 only 1 way
    // gropus of 6/2 = 3 -> from this select 2 only 3 ways 
    for _, v := range mp {
        if v >= 4 {
            groups := v/2
            sel := (groups * (groups -1)) / 2
            res += (8 * sel)
        }
    }

   
    return res
