Prime String

Last Updated : 20 Feb, 2023

Given a String str , the task is to check if the sum of ASCII value of all characters is a Prime Number or not.

Examples :

Input : geeksforgeeks
Output : Yes

Input : GeeksForGeeks
Output : No

Algorithm

Calculate the string length
Calculate sum of ASCII value of all characters
Now we can check till n^1/2 because a larger factor of n must be a multiple of smaller factor. (Please see Check If the Number is Prime or Not for details)
If the Sum is Prime then print “Yes” otherwise “No”

Now the implementation of above approach given below:

C++

// C++ program to find if string is a
// Prime or not.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function that checks if sum 
// is prime or not
bool isPrimeString(string str)
{
    int len = str.length(), n = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
        n += (int)str[i];

    // Corner cases
    if (n <= 1)
        return false;
    if (n <= 3)
        return true;

    // This is checked so that we can skip
    // middle five numbers in below loop
    if (n % 2 == 0 || n % 3 == 0)
        return false;

    for (int i = 5; i * i <= n; i = i + 6)
        if (n % i == 0 || n % (i + 2) == 0)
            return false;

    return true;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    string str = "geekRam";
    if (isPrimeString(str))
        cout << "Yes" << endl;
    else
        cout << "No" << endl;
}

Java

// Java program to find if
// string is a Prime or not.
import java.io.*;

class GFG {
    
    // Function that checks if
    // sum is prime or not
    static boolean isPrimeString(String str)
    {
        int len = str.length(), n = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
            n += (int)str.charAt(i);
    
        // Corner cases
        if (n <= 1)
            return false;
        if (n <= 3)
            return true;
    
        // This is checked so that we can skip
        // middle five numbers in below loop
        if (n % 2 == 0 || n % 3 == 0)
            return false;
    
        for (int i = 5; i * i <= n; i = i + 6)
            if (n % i == 0 || n % (i + 2) == 0)
                return false;
    
        return true;
    }

    // Driver code
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
        String str = "geekRam";
        
        if (isPrimeString(str))
            System.out.println("Yes");
        else
            System.out.println("No");
    }
}
