Leetcode: #1769 The goal is to count the number of operation it will take to move each character of string to a common position. Example: Given a string "1010". We need to move all the characters to positon 0, position 1, ... Initialize ans = [0,0,0,0] so moving for characters to position 0. we can't move position 1 to position 0 because the character 0 implies 0 ball; then position 2 to position 0, takes 2 operations; the character at position 3 is 0, so operation is 0. therefore the total for postion 0 is 2 ans = [2,0,0,0] for position 1. we move from position 0 to position 1, this takes 1 operation; we then move the character at position 2 to 1, this takes one operation also; the character at position 3 is 0, so operation is 0. therefore the total for postion 1 is 2 ans = [2,2,0,0]
Given an array of numbers and target, the goal is to get a combination of numbers that will sum up to the target. E.g Given an array[1,2,4] and target = 6. Examples of the combinations to give the target is [1,1,1,1,1,1], [2,2,2], [1,1,2,2] , e.t.c.
Constraints: The items in the array are unique. The combination must be unique i.e [1,1,2,2] is same as [1,2,1,2] so 1 is enough. The same number can make up the sum.
I made use of backtracking algorithm.
