494. Target Sum

Medium

You are given an integer array nums and an integer target.

You want to build an expression out of nums by adding one of the symbols '+' and '-' before each integer in nums and then concatenate all the integers.

• For example, if nums = [2, 1], you can add a '+' before 2 and a '-' before 1 and concatenate them to build the expression "+2-1".

Return the number of different expressions that you can build, which evaluates to target.

Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,1,1,1,1], target = 3

Output: 5

Explanation: There are 5 ways to assign symbols to make the sum of nums be target 3.

-1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

+1 - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

+1 + 1 - 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

+1 + 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 = 3

+1 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 3

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1], target = 1

Output: 1

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 20
• 0 <= nums[i] <= 1000
• 0 <= sum(nums[i]) <= 1000
• -1000 <= target <= 1000

Solution

impl Solution {
    pub fn find_target_sum_ways(nums: Vec<i32>, s: i32) -> i32 {
        let mut sum: i32 = nums.iter().sum();
        let s = s.abs();
        
        // Invalid cases
        if s > sum || (sum + s) % 2 != 0 {
            return 0;
        }

        let target = (sum + s) / 2;
        let n = nums.len();

        // dp[i] represents the number of ways to form sum i
        let mut dp = vec![vec![0; n + 1]; (target + 1) as usize];
        dp[0][0] = 1;

        // Handle empty knapsack condition
        for i in 0..n {
            if nums[i] == 0 {
                dp[0][i + 1] = dp[0][i] * 2;
            } else {
                dp[0][i + 1] = dp[0][i];
            }
        }

        // Fill the dp table
        for i in 1..=target {
            for j in 0..n {
                dp[i as usize][j + 1] += dp[i as usize][j];
                if nums[j] <= i {
                    dp[i as usize][j + 1] += dp[(i - nums[j]) as usize][j];
                }
            }
        }

        dp[target as usize][n]
    }
}
