Hey,
I've been doing this little program to check if a number is a Keith number, and for some reason it's not working. I've gone over the code a few times but still can't detect the error. Could you please help?

static boolean isKeith(int n)
        {
            int sz=Func.sumDg(n);
            int arr[]=new int[sz];
            int i=0,k=n;
            while(n>0)
            {
                arr[i]=n%10;
                i++;
                n/=10;
            }
            Disp.shw1D(arr);
            int sum=Func.sumArr(arr);
            
            while(sum<k)
            {
                for(int j=0;j<sz-1;j++)
                {
                    arr[j]=arr[j+1];
                }
                arr[sz-1]=sum;
                if(sum==k) return true;
                sum=Func.sumArr(arr);
            }
            return false;
        }

Thanks in advance...

Can you explain what is a Keith number?

Can you explain what is a Keith number?

it means a number whose digits and consecutive sums add up to the same number. such as 197

you have 1+9+7=17, then 9+7+17=33, then 7+17+37.....and so on till you get 197 and so its a Keith number...
