For any 4-digit integer except the ones with all the digits being the same, if we sort the digits in non-increasing order first, and then in non-decreasing order, a new number can be obtained by taking the second number from the first one. Repeat in this manner we will soon end up at the number 6174 – the black hole of 4-digit numbers. This number is named Kaprekar Constant.
For example, start from 6767, we’ll get:
1 | 7766 - 6677 = 1089 |
Given any 4-digit number, you are supposed to illustrate the way it gets into the black hole.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case which gives a positive integer N in the range (0,10^4^).
Output Specification:
If all the 4 digits of N are the same, print in one line the equation N - N = 0000
. Else print each step of calculation in a line until 6174
comes out as the difference. All the numbers must be printed as 4-digit numbers.
Sample Input:
1 | 6767 |
Sample Output:
1 | 7766 - 6677 = 1089 |
Sample Input 2:
1 | 2222 |
Sample Output 2:
1 | 2222 - 2222 = 0000 |
