Armstrong Numbers

An Armstrong number is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.

For example:

  • 9 is an Armstrong number, because 9 = 9^1 = 9
  • 10 is not an Armstrong number, because 10 != 1^2 + 0^2 = 1
  • 153 is an Armstrong number, because: 153 = 1^3 + 5^3 + 3^3 = 1 + 125 + 27 = 153
  • 154 is not an Armstrong number, because: 154 != 1^3 + 5^3 + 4^3 = 1 + 125 + 64 = 190

Write some code to determine whether a number is an Armstrong number.
