1577. Number of Ways Where Square of Number Is Equal to Product of Two Numbers (Medium)

Given two arrays of integers nums1 and nums2, return the number of triplets formed (type 1 and type 2) under the following rules:

• Type 1: Triplet (i, j, k) if nums1[i]2 == nums2[j] * nums2[k] where 0 <= i < nums1.length and 0 <= j < k < nums2.length.
• Type 2: Triplet (i, j, k) if nums2[i]2 == nums1[j] * nums1[k] where 0 <= i < nums2.length and 0 <= j < k < nums1.length.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums1 = [7,4], nums2 = [5,2,8,9]
Output: 1
Explanation: Type 1: (1, 1, 2), nums1[1]2 = nums2[1] * nums2[2]. (42 = 2 * 8). 

Example 2:

Input: nums1 = [1,1], nums2 = [1,1,1]
Output: 9
Explanation: All Triplets are valid, because 12 = 1 * 1.
Type 1: (0,0,1), (0,0,2), (0,1,2), (1,0,1), (1,0,2), (1,1,2).  nums1[i]2 = nums2[j] * nums2[k].
Type 2: (0,0,1), (1,0,1), (2,0,1). nums2[i]2 = nums1[j] * nums1[k].

Example 3:

Input: nums1 = [7,7,8,3], nums2 = [1,2,9,7]
Output: 2
Explanation: There are 2 valid triplets.
Type 1: (3,0,2).  nums1[3]2 = nums2[0] * nums2[2].
Type 2: (3,0,1).  nums2[3]2 = nums1[0] * nums1[1].

 

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums1.length, nums2.length <= 1000
• 1 <= nums1[i], nums2[i] <= 105
