我将c#示例移植到Objective-c，并没有在响应中看到它:

//Usage
NSMutableArray* numberList = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
NSMutableArray* partial = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
int target = 16;
for( int i = 1; i<target; i++ )
{ [numberList addObject:@(i)]; }
[self findSums:numberList target:target part:partial];


//*******************************************************************
// Finds combinations of numbers that add up to target recursively
//*******************************************************************
-(void)findSums:(NSMutableArray*)numbers target:(int)target part:(NSMutableArray*)partial
{
    int s = 0;
    for (NSNumber* x in partial)
    { s += [x intValue]; }

    if (s == target)
    { NSLog(@"Sum[%@]", partial); }

    if (s >= target)
    { return; }

    for (int i = 0;i < [numbers count];i++ )
    {
        int n = [numbers[i] intValue];
        NSMutableArray* remaining = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
        for (int j = i + 1; j < [numbers count];j++)
        { [remaining addObject:@([numbers[j] intValue])]; }

        NSMutableArray* partRec = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithArray:partial];
        [partRec addObject:@(n)];
        [self findSums:remaining target:target part:partRec];
    }
}

另一个python解决方案是使用itertools.combination模块，如下所示:

#!/usr/local/bin/python

from itertools import combinations

def find_sum_in_list(numbers, target):
    results = []
    for x in range(len(numbers)):
        results.extend(
            [   
                combo for combo in combinations(numbers ,x)  
                    if sum(combo) == target
            ]   
        )   

    print results

if __name__ == "__main__":
    find_sum_in_list([3,9,8,4,5,7,10], 15)

输出:[(8,7)，(5,10)，(3,8,4)，(3,5,7)]

这个问题的解决方案在互联网上已经出现过无数次了。这个问题叫做硬币兑换问题。你可以在http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Count_the_coins上找到答案，在http://jaqm.ro/issues/volume-5,issue-2/pdfs/patterson_harmel.pdf上找到数学模型(或谷歌硬币变化问题)。

顺便说一下，Tsagadai的Scala解决方案很有趣。本例生成1或0。作为一个副作用，它在控制台上列出了所有可能的解决方案。它显示解决方案，但无法以任何方式使其可用。

为了尽可能有用，代码应该返回一个List[List[Int]]，以允许获得解决方案的数量(列表列表的长度)，“最佳”解决方案(最短的列表)，或所有可能的解决方案。

这里有一个例子。它效率很低，但很容易理解。

object Sum extends App {

  def sumCombinations(total: Int, numbers: List[Int]): List[List[Int]] = {

    def add(x: (Int, List[List[Int]]), y: (Int, List[List[Int]])): (Int, List[List[Int]]) = {
      (x._1 + y._1, x._2 ::: y._2)
    }

    def sumCombinations(resultAcc: List[List[Int]], sumAcc: List[Int], total: Int, numbers: List[Int]): (Int, List[List[Int]]) = {
      if (numbers.isEmpty || total < 0) {
        (0, resultAcc)
      } else if (total == 0) {
        (1, sumAcc :: resultAcc)
      } else {
        add(sumCombinations(resultAcc, sumAcc, total, numbers.tail), sumCombinations(resultAcc, numbers.head :: sumAcc, total - numbers.head, numbers))
      }
    }

    sumCombinations(Nil, Nil, total, numbers.sortWith(_ > _))._2
  }

  println(sumCombinations(15, List(1, 2, 5, 10)) mkString "\n")
}

运行时，它显示:

List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)
List(1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 5)
List(1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5)
List(2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 5)
List(1, 2, 2, 5, 5)
List(5, 5, 5)
List(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 10)
List(1, 1, 1, 2, 10)
List(1, 2, 2, 10)
List(5, 10)

sumcombination()函数可以单独使用，并且可以进一步分析结果以显示“最佳”解决方案(最短的列表)或解决方案的数量(列表的数量)。

请注意，即使这样，需求也可能无法完全满足。解决方案中每个列表的顺序可能是重要的。在这种情况下，每个列表都必须重复它的元素组合的次数。或者我们只对不同的组合感兴趣。

例如，我们可以考虑List(5,10)应该给出两种组合:List(5,10)和List(10,5)。对于List(5,5,5)，它可以给出三种组合，也可以只给出一种组合，这取决于需求。对于整数，这三种排列是等价的，但如果我们处理的是硬币，就像在“硬币更换问题”中一样，它们就不一样了。

Also not stated in the requirements is the question of whether each number (or coin) may be used only once or many times. We could (and we should!) generalize the problem to a list of lists of occurrences of each number. This translates in real life into "what are the possible ways to make an certain amount of money with a set of coins (and not a set of coin values)". The original problem is just a particular case of this one, where we have as many occurrences of each coin as needed to make the total amount with each single coin value.

c#版本的@msalvadores代码的答案

void Main()
{
    int[] numbers = {3,9,8,4,5,7,10};
    int target = 15;
    sum_up(new List<int>(numbers.ToList()),target);
}

static void sum_up_recursive(List<int> numbers, int target, List<int> part)
{
   int s = 0;
   foreach (int x in part)
   {
       s += x;
   }
   if (s == target)
   {
        Console.WriteLine("sum(" + string.Join(",", part.Select(n => n.ToString()).ToArray()) + ")=" + target);
   }
   if (s >= target)
   {
        return;
   }
   for (int i = 0;i < numbers.Count;i++)
   {
         var remaining = new List<int>();
         int n = numbers[i];
         for (int j = i + 1; j < numbers.Count;j++)
         {
             remaining.Add(numbers[j]);
         }
         var part_rec = new List<int>(part);
         part_rec.Add(n);
         sum_up_recursive(remaining,target,part_rec);
   }
}
static void sum_up(List<int> numbers, int target)
{
    sum_up_recursive(numbers,target,new List<int>());
}

Javascript版本:

function subsetSum(numbers, target, partial) { var s, n, remaining; partial = partial || []; // sum partial s = partial.reduce(function (a, b) { return a + b; }, 0); // check if the partial sum is equals to target if (s === target) { console.log("%s=%s", partial.join("+"), target) } if (s >= target) { return; // if we reach the number why bother to continue } for (var i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) { n = numbers[i]; remaining = numbers.slice(i + 1); subsetSum(remaining, target, partial.concat([n])); } } subsetSum([3,9,8,4,5,7,10],15); // output: // 3+8+4=15 // 3+5+7=15 // 8+7=15 // 5+10=15

我在做类似的scala作业。我想在这里发布我的解决方案:

 def countChange(money: Int, coins: List[Int]): Int = {
      def getCount(money: Int, remainingCoins: List[Int]): Int = {
        if(money == 0 ) 1
        else if(money < 0 || remainingCoins.isEmpty) 0
        else
          getCount(money, remainingCoins.tail) +
            getCount(money - remainingCoins.head, remainingCoins)
      }
      if(money == 0 || coins.isEmpty) 0
      else getCount(money, coins)
    }
