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];
    }
}

建议回答:

下面是一个使用es2015生成器的解决方案:

function* subsetSum(numbers, target, partial = [], partialSum = 0) {

  if(partialSum === target) yield partial

  if(partialSum >= target) return

  for(let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++){
    const remaining = numbers.slice(i + 1)
        , n = numbers[i]

    yield* subsetSum(remaining, target, [...partial, n], partialSum + n)
  }

}

使用生成器实际上非常有用，因为它允许您在找到有效子集时立即暂停脚本执行。这与没有生成器(即缺乏状态)的解决方案形成对比，后者必须遍历每个数字子集

func sum(array : [Int]) -> Int{
    var sum = 0
    array.forEach { (item) in
        sum = item + sum
    }
    return sum
}
func susetNumbers(array :[Int], target : Int, subsetArray: [Int],result : inout [[Int]]) -> [[Int]]{
    let s = sum(array: subsetArray)
    if(s == target){
        print("sum\(subsetArray) = \(target)")
        result.append(subsetArray)
    }
    for i in 0..<array.count{
        let n = array[i]
        let remaning = Array(array[(i+1)..<array.count])
        susetNumbers(array: remaning, target: target, subsetArray: subsetArray + [n], result: &result)
        
    }
    return result
}

 var resultArray = [[Int]]()
    let newA = susetNumbers(array: [1,2,3,4,5], target: 5, subsetArray: [],result:&resultArray)
    print(resultArray)

c++版本的相同算法

#include <iostream>
#include <list>
void subset_sum_recursive(std::list<int> numbers, int target, std::list<int> partial)
{
        int s = 0;
        for (std::list<int>::const_iterator cit = partial.begin(); cit != partial.end(); cit++)
        {
            s += *cit;
        }
        if(s == target)
        {
                std::cout << "sum([";

                for (std::list<int>::const_iterator cit = partial.begin(); cit != partial.end(); cit++)
                {
                    std::cout << *cit << ",";
                }
                std::cout << "])=" << target << std::endl;
        }
        if(s >= target)
            return;
        int n;
        for (std::list<int>::const_iterator ai = numbers.begin(); ai != numbers.end(); ai++)
        {
            n = *ai;
            std::list<int> remaining;
            for(std::list<int>::const_iterator aj = ai; aj != numbers.end(); aj++)
            {
                if(aj == ai)continue;
                remaining.push_back(*aj);
            }
            std::list<int> partial_rec=partial;
            partial_rec.push_back(n);
            subset_sum_recursive(remaining,target,partial_rec);

        }
}

void subset_sum(std::list<int> numbers,int target)
{
    subset_sum_recursive(numbers,target,std::list<int>());
}
int main()
{
    std::list<int> a;
    a.push_back (3); a.push_back (9); a.push_back (8);
    a.push_back (4);
    a.push_back (5);
    a.push_back (7);
    a.push_back (10);
    int n = 15;
    //std::cin >> n;
    subset_sum(a, n);
    return 0;
}

在Haskell:

filter ((==) 12345 . sum) $ subsequences [1,5,22,15,0,..]

J:

(]#~12345=+/@>)(]<@#~[:#:@i.2^#)1 5 22 15 0 ...

正如您可能注意到的，两者都采用相同的方法，并将问题分为两部分:生成幂集的每个成员，并检查每个成员与目标的和。

还有其他的解决方案，但这是最直接的。

在这两种方法中，你是否需要帮助，或者找到另一种方法?

这个问题可以通过所有可能的和的递归组合来解决，过滤掉那些达到目标的和。下面是Python中的算法:

def subset_sum(numbers, target, partial=[]):
    s = sum(partial)

    # check if the partial sum is equals to target
    if s == target: 
        print "sum(%s)=%s" % (partial, target)
    if s >= target:
        return  # if we reach the number why bother to continue
    
    for i in range(len(numbers)):
        n = numbers[i]
        remaining = numbers[i+1:]
        subset_sum(remaining, target, partial + [n]) 
   

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

    #Outputs:
    #sum([3, 8, 4])=15
    #sum([3, 5, 7])=15
    #sum([8, 7])=15
    #sum([5, 10])=15

这种类型的算法在接下来的斯坦福大学抽象编程课程中有很好的解释-这个视频非常推荐来理解递归是如何产生解决方案的排列的。

Edit

上面作为一个生成器函数，使它更有用一点。需要Python 3.3+，因为yield来自。

def subset_sum(numbers, target, partial=[], partial_sum=0):
    if partial_sum == target:
        yield partial
    if partial_sum >= target:
        return
    for i, n in enumerate(numbers):
        remaining = numbers[i + 1:]
        yield from subset_sum(remaining, target, partial + [n], partial_sum + n)

下面是相同算法的Java版本:

package tmp;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;

class SumSet {
    static void sum_up_recursive(ArrayList<Integer> numbers, int target, ArrayList<Integer> partial) {
       int s = 0;
       for (int x: partial) s += x;
       if (s == target)
            System.out.println("sum("+Arrays.toString(partial.toArray())+")="+target);
       if (s >= target)
            return;
       for(int i=0;i<numbers.size();i++) {
             ArrayList<Integer> remaining = new ArrayList<Integer>();
             int n = numbers.get(i);
             for (int j=i+1; j<numbers.size();j++) remaining.add(numbers.get(j));
             ArrayList<Integer> partial_rec = new ArrayList<Integer>(partial);
             partial_rec.add(n);
             sum_up_recursive(remaining,target,partial_rec);
       }
    }
    static void sum_up(ArrayList<Integer> numbers, int target) {
        sum_up_recursive(numbers,target,new ArrayList<Integer>());
    }
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Integer[] numbers = {3,9,8,4,5,7,10};
        int target = 15;
        sum_up(new ArrayList<Integer>(Arrays.asList(numbers)),target);
    }
}

这是完全相同的启发式。我的Java有点生疏，但我认为很容易理解。

        Console.WriteLine("sum(" + string.Join(",", partial.ToArray()) + ")=" + target);

    if (s >= target)
        return;

        List<int> remaining = new List<int>();
        int n = numbers[i];
        for (int j = i + 1; j < numbers.Count; j++) remaining.Add(numbers[j]);

        List<int> partial_rec = new List<int>(partial);
        partial_rec.Add(n);
        sum_up_recursive(remaining, target, partial_rec);
    }
}

Ruby解决方案:(by @emaillenin)

def subset_sum(numbers, target, partial=[])
  s = partial.inject 0, :+
# check if the partial sum is equals to target

  puts "sum(#{partial})=#{target}" if s == target

  return if s >= target # if we reach the number why bother to continue

  (0..(numbers.length - 1)).each do |i|
    n = numbers[i]
    remaining = numbers.drop(i+1)
    subset_sum(remaining, target, partial + [n])
  end
end

subset_sum([3,9,8,4,5,7,10],15)

编辑:复杂性讨论

正如其他人提到的，这是一个np难题。它可以在O(2^n)的指数时间内求解，例如n=10，将有1024个可能的解。如果你要达到的目标是在一个较低的范围内，那么这个算法是有效的。例如:

Subset_sum([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]，100000)生成1024个分支，因为目标永远无法过滤出可能的解。

另一方面，subset_sum([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]，10)只生成175个分支，因为达到10的目标要过滤掉许多组合。

如果N和目标都是很大的数字，那么就应该得到近似的解。
