Same sum, different sets of integers
I came up with this, using recursion. Short and should work for n
greater than 9 :)

sumsToN = function(n)
{
if (n==1) return(1);
out = lapply(1:(n-1), function(i) {
s1 = sumsToN(n-i);
lapply(s1, c, i)
})
c(n, unlist(out, recursive = FALSE));
}
sumsToN(4)
[[1]] [1] 4 [[2]] [1] 3 1 [[3]] [1] 2 1 1 [[4]] [1] 1 1 1 1 [[5]] [1] 1 2 1 [[6]] [1] 2 2 [[7]] [1] 1 1 2 [[8]] [1] 1 3
sumsToN(5)
[[1]] [1] 5 [[2]] [1] 4 1 [[3]] [1] 3 1 1 [[4]] [1] 2 1 1 1 [[5]] [1] 1 1 1 1 1 [[6]] [1] 1 2 1 1 [[7]] [1] 2 2 1 [[8]] [1] 1 1 2 1 [[9]] [1] 1 3 1 [[10]] [1] 3 2 [[11]] [1] 2 1 2 [[12]] [1] 1 1 1 2 [[13]] [1] 1 2 2 [[14]] [1] 2 3 [[15]] [1] 1 1 3 [[16]] [1] 1 4

This is not the most efficient, but gets the idea across. This is the largest sum I can compute on my laptop with 16GB of memory. If I try to set N to 9, I run out of memory due to the size of the expand.grid.
N <- 8 # value to add up to # create expand.grid for all combinations and convert to matrix x <- as.matrix(expand.grid(rep(list(0:(N - 1)), N))) # generate rowSums and determine which rows add to N z <- rowSums(x) # now extract those rows, sort and convert to strings to remove dups add2N <- x[z == N, ] strings <- apply(
+ t(apply(add2N, 1, sort)) # sort + , 1 + , toString + )
# remove dups
strings <- strings[!duplicated(strings)]
# remove leading zeros
strings <- gsub("0, ", "", strings)
# print out
cat(strings, sep = '\n')

Hi, Do you have ideas, how to find all those different combinations of integers (>0) that produce as a sum, a certain integer. i.e.: if that sum is 3, the possibilities are c(1,1,1), c(1,2), c(2,1) 4, the possibilities are c(1,1,1,1),c(1,1,2),c(1,2,1),c(2,1,1),c(2,2),c(1,3),c(3,1) etc. Best regards, Atte Tenkanen
