Below we will define an n-interesting polygon. Your task is to find the area of a polygon for a given n.
A 1-interesting polygon is just a square with a side of length 1. An n-interesting polygon is obtained by taking the n - 1-interesting polygon and appending 1-interesting polygons to its rim, side by side. You can see the 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-interesting polygons in the picture below.
Example
For n = 2, the output should be
shapeArea(n) = 5;
For n = 3, the output should be
shapeArea(n) = 13.
Input/Output
-
[execution time limit] 4 seconds (py3)
-
[input] integer n
Guaranteed constraints: 1 ≤ n < 104.
- [output] integer
The area of the n-interesting polygon.
def shapeArea(n):
answer = 1
if n == 1:
return 1
else:
for i in range(1,n):
answer += 4*i
return answer
print(shapeArea(4))
