题目描述

Given a set of candidate numbers (candidates) (without duplicates) and a target number (target), find all unique combinations in candidates where the candidate numbers sums to target.

The same repeated number may be chosen from candidates unlimited number of times.

Note:

All numbers (including target) will be positive integers.
The solution set must not contain duplicate combinations.
Example 1:

Input: candidates = [2,3,6,7], target = 7,
A solution set is:
[
  [7],
  [2,2,3]
]
Example 2:

Input: candidates = [2,3,5], target = 8,
A solution set is:
[
  [2,2,2,2],
  [2,3,3],
  [3,5]
]

思路

这道题目是求集合，并不是求极值，因此动态规划不是特别切合，因此我们需要考虑别的方法。

这种题目其实有一个通用的解法，就是回溯法。
网上也有大神给出了这种回溯法解题的
通用写法，这里的所有的解法使用通用方法解答。
除了这道题目还有很多其他题目可以用这种通用解法，具体的题目见后方相关题目部分。

我们先来看下通用解法的解题思路，我画了一张图：
