Description
Given an array of distinct integers nums and a target integer target, return the number of possible combinations that add up to target.
The test cases are generated so that the answer can fit in a 32-bit integer.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,2,3], target = 4
Output: 7
Explanation:
The possible combination ways are:
(1, 1, 1, 1)
(1, 1, 2)
(1, 2, 1)
(1, 3)
(2, 1, 1)
(2, 2)
(3, 1)
Note that different sequences are counted as different combinations.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [9], target = 3
Output: 0
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 2001 <= nums[i] <= 1000- All the elements of
nums are unique.
1 <= target <= 1000
Follow up: What if negative numbers are allowed in the given array? How does it change the problem? What limitation we need to add to the question to allow negative numbers?
Solutions
Solution 1: Dynamic Programming
We define f[i] as the number of combinations that sum up to i. Initially, f[0] = 1, and the rest f[i] = 0. The final answer is f[target].
For f[i], we can enumerate each element x in the array. If i \ge x, then f[i] = f[i] + f[i - x].
Finally, return f[target].
The time complexity is O(n × target), and the space complexity is O(target), where n is the length of the array.
