Feed Pigeons
I start to feed one of the pigeons. A minute later two more fly by and a minute after that another 3. Then 4, and so on (Ex: 1+2+3+4+...). One portion of food lasts a pigeon for a minute, but in case there's not enough food for all the birds, the pigeons who arrived first ate first. Pigeons are hungry animals and eat without knowing when to stop. If I have N portions of bird feed, how many pigeons will be fed with at least one portion of wheat?
Input: A quantity of portions wheat as a positive integer (int).
Output: The number of fed pigeons as integer (int).
Examples:
assert checkio(1) == 1 assert checkio(3) == 2 assert checkio(5) == 3 assert checkio(10) == 6
How it is used: this task illustrates how we can model various situations. Of course, the model has a limited approximation, but often-times we don't need a perfect model.
Precondition: 0 < N < 105.
