Grokking the Coding Interview Patterns in C#

Solution: Combinations

Explore how to use backtracking to generate all unique combinations of k numbers from 1 to n. Understand the recursive approach with pruning to avoid unnecessary computation. This lesson helps you grasp the systematic process of building, exploring, and undoing choices to efficiently cover all valid combinations.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

You are given two integers, n and k. Your task is to return all possible combinations of k numbers chosen from the range [1, n].

The result can be returned in any order.

Note: Combinations are unordered, i.e., [1, 2] and [2, 1] are considered the same combination.

Constraints:

  • 1≤1 \leq n ≤20\leq 20

  • 1≤1 \leq k ≤n\leq n ...
