Given a positive number n, rotate its base-10 digits m positions rightward. That is, output the result of m steps of moving the last digit to the start. The rotation count m will be a non-negative integer.

You should remove leading zeroes in the final result, but not in any of the intermediate steps. For example, for the test case 100,2 => 1, we first rotate to 010, then to 001, then finally drop the leading zeroes to get 1.

Tests

n,m => Output

123,1 => 312
123,2 => 231
123,3 => 123
123,4 => 312
1,637 => 1
10,1 => 1
100,2 => 1
10,2 => 10 
110,2 => 101
123,0 => 123
9998,2 => 9899

    \$\begingroup\$ From the test cases, it seems the input number can be base 4 or any higher base, to handle digits up to 3? Power-of-2 bases are much more efficient and convenient to work with in binary computers, e.g. hardware rotate instructions, and bit-shifts. e.g. x86 add ecx,ecx / ror eax, cl rotates by n 2-bit digits, in 4 bytes of machine code. Nothing in the question actually says you have to rotate base-10 digits, which would be inconvenient if you get input as an int or something. But I suspect you meant that? \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 16, 2020 at 8:08

Numeric solution (that fails for combinations of n & m that cause it to exceed R's numeric range): chains the digits of n, m times (so: 123 => 123123123123 for m=4) and then calculates DIV 10^m (so: 12312312 for m=4) MOD 10^digits(n) (so: 312).

lambda n,m:int(((n*m)[-m:]+n)[:len(n)])

Try it online! Or see the test-suite.

How?

Rotating n right by m is the same as rotating n right by m modulo length n (m%len(n)), which is the concatenation of the last m%len(n) digits with the first len(n)-m%len(n) digits.

A simple slice would give us

lambda n,m:int(n[-m%len(n):]+n[:-m%len(n)])

for 43 bytes. To remove the need for the repeated -m% we can instead concatenate the last m%len(n) digits with all the digits of n and then take the first len(n) digits. This is

lambda n,m:int((n[-m%len(n):]+n)[:len(n)])

for 42 bytes. The n[-m%len(n):] can then be replaced with taking the rightmost m digits of m ns concatenated together, (n*m)[-m:] giving us the 39 byte solution.

    \$\begingroup\$ @Noodle9 The trailing semicolon isn't counted because it's a lambda. One way of writing it is to have Lambda lambda = (x, y) -> x+y;, and yes you have a semicolon. Another way of using a lambda is this: f.acceptLambda((x, y) -> x+y);. Do you see a semicolon after the lambda ? No, but the lambda is still the same! This is possible because the semicolon isn't part of the lambda, but part of the storage of the lambda in a variable. Regarding the imports, I invite you to read the relevant meta post. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 15, 2020 at 21:12

But it can't be base 2 (the natural base for computer integers) because they have digit values from 0 to 3. So at least base 4? With all this stuff about removing leading zeros in the result, it barely even makes sense for the result to be a fixed-width binary integer like C int either. If this is the kind of thing you want to do with numbers in your program, keeping them as strings or lists makes the most sense. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 16, 2020 at 8:22

JavaScript (V8), 47 bytes

(n,m,k=(e=n+'').length)=>+(e+e).substr(k-m%k,k)

Try it online!
