Use Mid Point Circle Algorithm

public static void DrawCircle(int x0, int y0, int radius)
{
  int x = radius, y = 0;
  int radiusError = 1-x;

  while(x >= y)
  {
    DrawPixel(x + x0, y + y0);
    DrawPixel(y + x0, x + y0);
    DrawPixel(-x + x0, y + y0);
    DrawPixel(-y + x0, x + y0);
    DrawPixel(-x + x0, -y + y0);
    DrawPixel(-y + x0, -x + y0);
    DrawPixel(x + x0, -y + y0);
    DrawPixel(y + x0, -x + y0);

    y++;
    if(radiusError<0)
            radiusError+=2*y+1;
    else
    {
            x--;
            radiusError+=2*(y-x+1);
    }
  }
}

If we delete the mth number from a circle which is composed of numbers 0, 1, …, n-1 counting from 0 at every time, what is the last number?

For example, a circle is composed of five numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. If we delete the 3rd number at every time, the deleted numbers are in order of 2, 0, 4, 1, so the last remaining number is 3.
