HPYNOS - Happy Numbers I
The process of “breaking” an integer is defined as summing the squares of its digits. For example, the result of breaking the integer 125 is (12 + 22 + 52) = 30. An integer N is happy if after “breaking” it repeatedly the result reaches 1. If the result never reaches 1 no matter how many times the “breaking” is repeated, then N is not a happy number.
TASK
Write a program that given an integer N, determines whether it is a happy number or not.
CONSTRAINTS
2 ≤ N ≤ 2,147,483,647
Input
A single line containing a single integer N.
Output
A single line containing a single integer T which is the number of times the process had to be done to determine that N is happy, or -1 if N is not happy.
Example
Input: 19 Output: 4
1) 19 : 12 + 92 = 82 2) 82 : 82 + 22 = 68 3) 68 : 62 + 82 = 100 4) 100 : 12 + 02 + 02 = 1
The solution is 4 because we discovered that the integer 19 is happy after we repeated the process 4 times.
Input: 204 Output: -1
204 –> 20 –> 4 –> 16 –> 37 –> 58 –> 89 –> 145 –> 42 –> 20 –> 4 –> 16 –> 37 –> 58 –> 89 –> 145 ……
204 is not a happy number because after breaking it several times the results start repeating so we can deduce that if we continue breaking it, the result will never reach 1.
Number of input files is 32.
Don't use pre-calculated values (Don't Cheat)!!!

Lol, constrains almost give me heart attack. But simple brute force works fine |

wow ac in one go, maintained a vector to store past 8 values, ifg they repeat then its not happy number

try different test case from 1 to 10 , you will notice a pattern and that's it !!ac |

Do not complicate things. Solution is hidden in the test case itself. |

How can we pre-calculate values?? |
