Prepare your favorite cup of coffee, because we are about to enter the fantastic world of Divisible sum pairs.

The problem

The solution

To start our solution, let's define the divisibleSumPairs function that will receive the following parameters:

• n: length of array arr;
• k: integer divisor;
• ar: input array.

function divisibleSumPairs(n, k, ar) {}

Next we will initialize the counter variable with the value 0:

let counter = 0;

Now let's go through the ar array from the first element to the penultimate element:

for (let i = 0; i < n - 1; i++) {}

Inside the first loop, we will start a second loop, to cycle through the elements of the ar array from the i + 1 element to the last element:

for (let j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {}

After traversing the array ar with the two loops (integrating through the element i and the element j (i + 1)), we will check if the sum of the elements in the indices i and j of the array arr is divisible by k without remainder:

if ((ar[i] + ar[j]) % k === 0) {}

If this condition is met, we will increase the value of the counter variable:

counter++;

Thus, we will have the number of pairs that satisfy this condition counted in counter.

Finally, let's return the value of counter:

return counter;

Final resolution

After following the step by step we have our final resolution:

function divisibleSumPairs(n, k, ar) {
    let counter = 0;

    for (let i = 0; i < n - 1; i++) {
      for (let j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
        if ((ar[i] + ar[j]) % k === 0) {
          counter++;
        }
      }
    }

    return counter;
}
