https://leetcode.com/problems/combination-sum/
Given an array of distinct integers candidates
and a target integer target, return a list of
all unique combinations of candidates where the
chosen numbers sum to target. You may return the
combinations in any order.
The same number may be chosen from candidates an
unlimited number of times. Two combinations are
unique if the frequency of at least one of the
chosen numbers is different.
The test cases are generated such that the number
of unique combinations that sum up to target is
less than 150 combinations for the given input.
Example 1:
Input: candidates = [2,3,6,7], target = 7
Output: [[2,2,3],[7]]
Explanation:
2 and 3 are candidates, and 2 + 2 + 3 = 7. Note that 2 can be used multiple times.
7 is a candidate, and 7 = 7.
These are the only two combinations.
Example 2:
Input: candidates = [2,3,5], target = 8
Output: [[2,2,2,2],[2,3,3],[3,5]]
Example 3:
Input: candidates = [2], target = 1
Output: []
