[leetcode] problem 40 – combination sum ii

Given a collection of candidate numbers (candidates) and a target number (target), find all unique combinations in candidates where the candidate numbers sums to target.

Each number in candidates may only be used once in the combination.

Note

  • All numbers (including target) will be positive integers.
  • The solution set must not contain duplicate combinations.

Example

No.1

Input: candidates = [10,1,2,7,6,1,5], target = 8,
A solution set is:

1
2
3
4
5
6
[
[1, 7],
[1, 2, 5],
[2, 6],
[1, 1, 6]
]

No.2

Input: candidates = [2,5,2,1,2], target = 5,

1
2
3
4
5
A solution set is:
[
[1,2,2],
[5]
]
