Finding pairs that add up to a given sum, using recursion












0












$begingroup$


I'm currently tasked with using recursion to find pairs that add up to a given sum. How would I make the function recursiveFixedSumPairs function more efficient and truncate this code? Also, what is the current runtime? I believe it is n since it will go through the array only once always starting at the first index.



public class HW4 {

public static void main(String args) {

int a = {1, 5, 8, 11, 14, 15, 20, 23, 25, 28, 30, 34};
int k;
k = 43;
System.out.println("k = " + k);
findFixedSumPairs(a, k);
}

public static void findFixedSumPairs(int a, int k) {
recursiveFixedSumPairs(a, -1, 0, k);
}

private static void recursiveFixedSumPairs(int array, int subPair1, int index, int k) {
// // pairs whose sum equals k are printed in this method
// if ((array[subPair1] + array[subPair2]) == k) {
// System.out.println("[" + array[subPair1] + ", " + array[subPair2] + "]");
// } else if ((array[subPair1] + array[subPair2]) > k) {
// recursiveFixedSumPairs(array, subPair1, subPair2 - 1, k);
// } else {
// recursiveFixedSumPairs(array, subPair1 + 1, subPair2, k);
// }

if (index == array.length) {
return;
}

else if (index == array.length-1) {

if (subPair1!= -1 && subPair1 + array[index] == k) {
System.out.println(""+subPair1 +" "+ array[index]);
}

else {
return;
}
}

if (subPair1 != -1) {

if (array[index] == k- subPair1) {
System.out.println(""+subPair1 +" "+ array[index]);
return;
} else {
recursiveFixedSumPairs(array, subPair1, index + 1, k);
}

} else {
recursiveFixedSumPairs(array, array[index], index+1, k);
recursiveFixedSumPairs(array,-1, index+1, k);
}
}
}

You made it too hard:



public class HW4 {

public static void main(String args) {

int a = {1, 5, 8, 11, 14, 15, 20, 23, 25, 28, 30, 34};
int k;
k = 43;
System.out.println("k = " + k);
findSumPairs(a, k, 0);
}


private static void findSumPairs(int array, int target, int index) {
for (int i=index+1; i<array.length; i++)
{
if (array[index] + array[i] == target)
{
System.out.println(array[index] + " " + array[i]);
}
}
if (index < array.length -1)
