Python Challenges: Get the Hamming numbers upto a given numbers also check whether a given number is a Hamming number
Write a Python program to get the Hamming numbers upto a given numbers also check whether a given number is a Hamming number.
Hamming numbers are numbers of the form
H = 2i x 3j x 5k
Where i, j, k ≥ 0
The sequence of Hamming numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24, 25, 27. . . consists of all numbers of the form 2i.3j.5k where i, j and k are non-negative integers.
Explanation:

Sample Solution:
Python Code:
def is_hamming_numbers(x): if x == 1: return 1 if x % 2 == 0: return is_hamming_numbers(x/2) if x % 3 == 0: return is_hamming_numbers(x/3) if x % 5 == 0: return is_hamming_numbers(x/5) return 0 def hamming_numbers_sequence(x): if x == 1: return 1 hamming_numbers_sequence(x-1) if is_hamming_numbers(x) == True: print("%s" % x, end=' ') print(is_hamming_numbers(7)) print(is_hamming_numbers(1)) hamming_numbers_sequence(24) print() Sample Output:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 8 9 10 12 15 16 18 20 24
