* \brief [Problem 1](https://projecteuler.net/problem=1) solution
|
|
*
|
|
* If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5,
|
|
* we get 3,5,6 and 9. The sum of these multiples is 23.
|
|
* Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below N.
|
|
*
|
|
* This solution is based on the pattern that the successive numbers in the
|
|
* series follow: 0+3,+2,+1,+3,+1,+2,+3.
