* Rename all Project Euler directories: Reason: The change was done to maintain consistency throughout the directory and to keep all directories in sorted order. Due to the above change, some config files had to be modified: 'problem_22` -> `problem_022` * Update scripts to pad zeroes in PE directories

Problem 46: https://projecteuler.net/problem=46
|
||
|
||
It was proposed by Christian Goldbach that every odd composite number can be
|
||
written as the sum of a prime and twice a square.
|
||
|
||
9 = 7 + 2 × 12
|
||
15 = 7 + 2 × 22
|
||
21 = 3 + 2 × 32
|
||
25 = 7 + 2 × 32
|
||
27 = 19 + 2 × 22
|
||
33 = 31 + 2 × 12
|
||
|
||
It turns out that the conjecture was false.
|
||
|
||
What is the smallest odd composite that cannot be written as the sum of a
|
||
prime and twice a square?
