The nth term of the sequence of triangle numbers is given by, tn = ½n(n+1); so
|
|
the first ten triangle numbers are:
|
|
|
|
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55, ...
|
|
|
|
By converting each letter in a word to a number corresponding to its
|
|
alphabetical position and adding these values we form a word value. For example,
|
|
the word value for SKY is 19 + 11 + 25 = 55 = t10. If the word value is a
|
|
triangle number then we shall call the word a triangle word.
|
|
|
|
Using words.txt (right click and 'Save Link/Target As...'), a 16K text file
|
|
containing nearly two-thousand common English words, how many are triangle
|
|
words?
