LeetCode [1492] The kth Factor of n

 1492. The kth Factor of n

Medium

Given two positive integers n and k.

A factor of an integer n is defined as an integer i where n % i == 0.

Consider a list of all factors of n sorted in ascending order, return the kth factor in this list or return -1 if n has less than k factors.

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 12, k = 3
Output: 3
Explanation: Factors list is [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12], the 3rd factor is 3.

Example 2:

Input: n = 7, k = 2
Output: 7
Explanation: Factors list is [1, 7], the 2nd factor is 7.

Example 3:

Input: n = 4, k = 4
Output: -1
Explanation: Factors list is [1, 2, 4], there is only 3 factors. We should return -1.

Example 4:

Input: n = 1, k = 1
Output: 1
Explanation: Factors list is [1], the 1st factor is 1.

Example 5:

Input: n = 1000, k = 3
Output: 4
Explanation: Factors list is [1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 40, 50, 100, 125, 200, 250, 500, 1000].

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= k <= n <= 1000

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

class Solution { public int kthFactor(int n, int k) { if(k==1) return 1; int cnt = 0; for(int d = 1; d<=n/2; ++d){ if(n%d==0){ if(++cnt==k) return d; } } if(cnt+1==k) return n; return -1; } }
