377. Combination Sum IV 70. Climbing Stairs

back function (return number)

remember the structure

class Solution {
    int res = 0;
    //List<List<Integer>> resList = new ArrayList<List<Integer>>();
    public int combinationSum4(int[] nums, int target) {
        Arrays.sort(nums);
        return back(target, 0,nums,new HashMap<Integer,Integer>());
    }
    int back(int target, int sum, int[] nums, Map<Integer,Integer> map){
        if(sum == target){
            return 1;
        }else if(sum > target) return 0;
        if(map.containsKey(sum)) return map.get(sum);
        int count = 0;
        for(int i = 0; i<nums.length; i++){
            count+= back(target, sum+nums[i],nums,map);  
        }
        map.put(sum,count);
        return count;
    }
}

 

Solution 2:

dp keywards: how many ways and optimal

class Solution {
    public int combinationSum4(int[] nums, int target) {
        int[] dp = new int[target+1]; // how many cases for each number
        Arrays.sort(nums);
        for(int num:nums){
            if(num>target) continue;
            dp[num] = 1;
        }
        for(int i = 1;i <=target; i++){
            
            for(int num : nums){
                if(i<num) continue;
                dp[i] += dp[i-num];
            }
            
        }
        return dp[target];
    }
}

 

70. Climbing Stairs

class Solution {
    //dp[n] = dp[n-1] + dp[n-2]
    //dp[1] : 1, dp[0] = 1 ,dp[2] = 2, dp[3] = 3
    public int climbStairs(int n) {
        int[] dp = new int[n+1];
        dp[0] = 1; dp[1] = 1;
        for(int i = 2; i<=n; i++){
            dp[i] = dp[i-1]+dp[i-2];
        }
        return dp[n];
    }
