Hi guys. I started practicing CSES problemset but I am stuck in the problem below.

How to deal with cases like n>10e6?
No need for a straight up answer just a hint

constraint for n is 1<=n<=10e12
In larger cases like n=10e12 where we loop from 1 to 10e12, TLE would be shown.
I used the same approach but it is not working for larger cases of n.
think about how many times you will add x to the answer, when x > 1e6.This value is not too big, so we can bruteforce it.
In this formula, $$$\left\lfloor\dfrac nd\right\rfloor$$$ will be equal for some consecutive $$$d$$$
So we can calculate the left endpoint $$$l$$$ and the right endpoint $$$r$$$, then,
How to calculate $$$l$$$ and $$$r$$$?
You can find some regular patterns. Here is the conclusion: (I'm sorry that I don't know how to prove it)
$$$1$$$ is a left endpoint and for each left endpoint $$$l$$$, the right endpoint $$$r=\left\lfloor \dfrac n{\left\lfloor \dfrac nl\right\rfloor}\right\rfloor$$$.
We can do it in $$$O(\sqrt n)$$$ time.
Here is the code:
I hope this code is correct.
