2 Ways To Check A Narcissistic Number in C Programming

Learn How To Find if a Number is a Narcissistic Number or not in C Programming Language. It is important that we should know How A For Loop Works before getting further with the C Program Code.

What is a Narcissistic Number?

If the Sum of Digits of a Number raised to the power of the number of digits is equal to the Number/Integer, then it is a Narcissistic Number. It is similar to an Armstrong Number.

Example:

Three Digit Narcissistic Integer:
153 = (1 * 1 * 1) + (5 * 5 * 5) + (3 * 3 * 3)

Four Digit Narcissistic Number:
8208 = (8 * 8 * 8 * 8) + (2 * 2 * 2 * 2) + (0 * 0 * 0 * 0) + (8 * 8 * 8 * 8)

This program takes every individual digit from the Integer and calculates the digit raised to the power of the number of digits in the Integer. Adding these powers of every digits and then comparing it with the Integer. If Sum is equal to the Integer, then it is a Narcissistic Number.

    Hey instead of taking digits from user, use on counter and get digits… it will help to generate armstrong/narcissistic number… Cheers…

    This seems to be similar to Armstrong Number. What I could sense is that when an Armstrong Number with 4 digits or more needs to be calculated then it is called as Narcissiatic Number, right?
