Vampire Number
A number 
with an Even number 
of Digits formed by multiplying a pair of 
-Digitnumbers (where the Digits are taken from the original number in any order) 
and 
together. Pairsof trailing zeros are not allowed. If 
is a vampire number, then and are called its ``fangs.'' Examples ofvampire numbers include
