# --description--

Let N be a positive integer and let N be split into k equal parts, r = N/k, so that N = r + r + ... + r.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Let P be the product of these parts, P = r × r × ... × r = rk.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, if 11 is split into five equal parts, 11 = 2.2 + 2.2 + 2.2 + 2.2 + 2.2, then P = 2.25 = 51.53632.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Let M(N) = Pmax for a given value of N.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It turns out that the maximum for N = 11 is found by splitting eleven into four equal parts which leads to Pmax = (11/4)4; that is, M(11) = 14641/256 = 57.19140625, which is a terminating decimal.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
However, for N = 8 the maximum is achieved by splitting it into three equal parts, so M(8) = 512/27, which is a non-terminating decimal.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Let D(N) = N if M(N) is a non-terminating decimal and D(N) = -N if M(N) is a terminating decimal.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, ΣD(N) for 5 ≤ N ≤ 100 is 2438.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Find ΣD(N) for 5 ≤ N ≤ 10000.

`euler183()` should return 48861552.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
assert.strictEqual(euler183(), 48861552);
|
|||
|
```
