Short Problem Definition:
Compute number of integers divisible by k in range [a..b].

Complexity:
expected worst-case time complexity is O(1);
expected worst-case space complexity is O(1)
Execution:
This little check required a bit of experimentation. One needs to start from the first valid value that is bigger than A and a multiply of K.
Solution:
def solution(A, B, K): if B < A or K <= 0: raise Exception("Invalid Input") min_value = ((A + K -1) // K) * K if min_value > B: return 0 return ((B - min_value) // K) + 1
