Solution: Additive Number
Understand how backtracking helps solve the additive number challenge by exploring all possible partitions of the input string. Learn to apply recursion, handle constraints like leading zeros, and evaluate the efficiency of the solution in terms of time and space complexity.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
An additive number is a string whose digits can be partitioned into an additive sequence.
A valid additive sequence contains at least three numbers, where every number after the first two is equal to the sum of the two immediately preceding numbers.
Given a string, num, containing only digits, determine whether it represents an additive number. Return TRUE if a valid additive sequence can be formed from the digits of num, and FALSE otherwise.
Note: Numbers in the additive sequence cannot have leading zeros. For example, the sequences
1, 2, 03and1, 02, 3are both invalid.
Constraints:
