In a garden represented as an infinite 2D grid, there is an apple tree planted at every integer coordinate. The apple tree planted at an integer coordinate (i, j)
has |i| + |j|
apples growing on it.
You will buy an axis-aligned square plot of land that is centered at (0, 0)
.
Given an integer neededApples
, return the minimum perimeter of a plot such that at least neededApples
apples are inside or on the perimeter of that plot.
The value of |x|
is defined as:
x
if x >= 0
-x
if x < 0
Example 1:
Input: neededApples = 1
Output: 8
Explanation: A square plot of side length 1 does not contain any apples. However, a square plot of side length 2 has 12 apples inside (as depicted in the image above). The perimeter is 2 * 4 = 8.
Example 2:
Input: neededApples = 13
Output: 16
Example 3:
Input: neededApples = 1000000000
Output: 5040
Constraints:
1 <= neededApples <= 1015
