;Task: Find solutions to the ''sum to one hundred'' puzzle.

Add (insert) the mathematical operators '''+''' or '''-''' (plus or minus) before any of the digits in the

decimal numeric string '''123456789''' such that the resulting mathematical expression adds up to a

particular sum (in this iconic case, '''100''').

Example: 123 + 4 - 5 + 67 - 89 = 100

Show all output here.

:* Show all solutions that sum to '''100''' :* Show the sum that has the maximum ''number'' of solutions (from zero to infinity) : Show the lowest positive sum that ''can't'' be expressed (has no solutions), using the rules for this task :* Show the ten highest numbers that can be expressed using the rules for this task (extra credit)

An example of a sum that can't be expressed (within the rules of this task) is: '''5074'''

(which, of course, isn't the lowest positive sum that can't be expressed).

* (where ''infinity'' would be a relatively small 123,456,789)

===The Package Sum_To===

Between any two consecutive digits, there can be a "+", a "-", or no operator. E.g., the digits "4" and "5" occur in the string as either of the following three substrings: "4+5", "4-5", or "45". For the first digit, we only have two choices: "+1" (written as "1"), and "-1". This makes 2*3^8 (two times (three to the power of eight)) different strings. Essential is the generic function Eval in the package Sum_To calls the procedure Callback for each such string Str, with the number Int holding the sum corresponding to the evaluation of Str. The second generic procedure Print is for convenience. If the Sum fits the condition, i.e., if Print_If(Sum, Number), then Print writes Sum = Str to the output.

package Sum_To is

   generic
      with procedure Callback(Str: String; Int: Integer);
   procedure Eval;

   generic
      Number: Integer;
      with function Print_If(Sum, Number: Integer) return Boolean;
   procedure Print(S: String; Sum: Integer);

end Sum_To;

The implementation of Eval follows the observation above: Eval calls Rec_Eval with the initial string "1" and "-1". For each call, Rec_Eval recursively evaluates a ternary tree with 3^8 leafs. At each leaf, Rec_Eval calls Callback. The implementation of Print is straightforward.

with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Containers.Ordered_Maps;

package body Sum_To is

   procedure Eval is

      procedure Rec_Eval(Str: String; Previous, Current, Next: Integer) is
	 Next_Image: String := Integer'Image(Next);
	 -- Next_Image(1) holds a blank, Next_Image(2) a digit

	 function Sign(N: Integer) return Integer is
	    (if N<0 then -1 elsif N>0 then 1 else 0);

      begin
	 if Next = 10 then -- end of recursion
	    Callback(Str, Previous+Current);
	 else -- Next < 10
	    Rec_Eval(Str & Next_Image(2), -- concatenate current and Next
		 Previous, Sign(Current)*(10*abs(Current)+Next), Next+1);
	    Rec_Eval(Str & "+" & Next_Image(2), -- add Next
		 Previous+Current, Next, Next+1);
	    Rec_Eval(Str & "-" & Next_Image(2), -- subtract Next
		 Previous+Current, -Next, Next+1);
	 end if;
      end Rec_Eval;

   begin -- Eval
      Rec_Eval("1", 0, 1, 2);  -- unary "+", followed by "1"
      Rec_Eval("-1", 0, -1, 2); -- unary "-", followed by "1"
   end Eval;

   procedure Print(S: String; Sum: Integer) is
      -- print solution (S,N), if N=Number
   begin
      if Print_If(Sum, Number) then
	 Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line(Integer'Image(Sum) & " = " & S & ";");
      end if;
   end Print;

end Sum_To;

The First Subtask

Given the package Sum_To, the solution to the first subtask (print all solution for the sum 100) is trivial: Eval_100 calls Print_100 for all 2*3^8 strings, and Print_100 writes the output if the sum is equal to 100.

with Sum_To;

procedure Sum_To_100 is

   procedure Print_100 is new Sum_To.Print(100, "=");
   procedure Eval_100 is new Sum_To.Eval(Print_100);

begin
   Eval_100;
end Sum_To_100;

 100 = 123+45-67+8-9;
 100 = 123+4-5+67-89;
 100 = 123-45-67+89;
 100 = 123-4-5-6-7+8-9;
 100 = 12+3+4+5-6-7+89;
 100 = 12+3-4+5+67+8+9;
 100 = 12-3-4+5-6+7+89;
 100 = 1+23-4+56+7+8+9;
 100 = 1+23-4+5+6+78-9;
 100 = 1+2+34-5+67-8+9;
 100 = 1+2+3-4+5+6+78+9;
 100 = -1+2-3+4+5+6+78+9;

===The other subtasks (including the extra credit)===

For the three other subtasks, we maintain an ordered map of sums (as the keys) and counters for the number of solutions (as the elements). The procedure Generate_Map generates the Map by calling the procedure Insert_Solution for all 2*3^8 solutions. Finding (1) the sum with the maximal number of solutions, (2) the first sum>=0 without a solution and (3) the ten largest sums with a solution (extra credit) are done by iterating this map.

      else -- increase counter for Sum
	 Map.Replace_Element(Position => Position,
			     New_Item => (Element(Position))+1);

AppleScript

{{Trans|JavaScript}} AppleScript is essentially out of its depth at this scale. The first task (number of distinct paths to 100) is accessible within a few seconds. Subsequent tasks, however, terminate only (if at all) after impractical amounts of time. Note the contrast with the lighter and more optimised JavaScript interpreter, which takes less than half a second to return full results for all the listed tasks.

AWK

{{trans|Fortran IV}} Awk is a weird language: there are no integers, no switch-case (in the standard language version), programs are controlled by data flow, the interpreter speed is moderate. The advantage of Awk are associative arrays, used here for counting how many times we get the same sum as the result of calculations.

C++

{{Works with|GCC|5.1}} {{Works with|Microsoft Visual Studio|2010}} For each expression of sum s, there is at least one expression whose sum is -s. If the sum s can be represented by n expressions, the sum -s can also be represented by n expressions. The change of all signs in an expression change the sign of the sum of this expression. For example, -1+23-456+789 has the opposite sign than +1-23+456-789. Therefore only the positive sum with the maximum number of solutions is shown. The program does not check uniqueness of this sum. We can easily check (modifying the program) that: sum 9 has 46 solutions; sum -9 has 46 solutions; any other sum has less than 46 solutions.

{{works with|Gforth|0.7.3}} This solution uses EVALUATE on a string buffer to compute the sum. Given the copious string manipulations, EVALUATE, and the large byte-array used to keep sum counts, this implementation is optimized neither for speed nor for memory. On my machine it runs in about 3.8 seconds, compared to the speed-optimized C solution which runs in about 0.005 seconds.

Fortran IV

{{trans|Fortran 95}} {{works with|gfortran|5.1}} The program below is written in Fortran IV. Nevertheless, Fortran IV had a variety of dialects. It did not work the same on every type of computer. The source code below is compiled without problems using today's compilers. '''It have not been checked on any old mainframe.''' Sorry, I have no access to CDC6000. The algorithm used is not very fast, but uses little memory. In practice, this program took about 15 seconds to complete the task on PC (in 2017). For comparison: the program written in C ++ (using maps and STL collections) took about 1 second on the same machine.

! RossetaCode: Sum to 100, Fortran 95, an algorithm using ternary numbers.
!
! Find solutions to the 'sum to one hundred' puzzle.
!
! We optimize algorithms for size. Therefore we don't use arrays, but recompute
! all values again and again. It is a little surprise that the time efficiency
! is quite acceptable. Actually the code is more compact than the implementation
! in C++ (STL maps and sets). We purposely break DRY and use magic values.
! Nevertheless, it is Fortran 95, free form lines, do-endo etc.

Batch processing

By the simple expedient of storing all evaluations in an array (which is not so large) and then sorting the array, the required results appear in a blink. The source is essentially F77 except for the usage of an array assignment of OP = -1, writing out the highest ten results via an array expression instead of a DO-loop, array OPNAME extending from -1 to +1, a CYCLE statement rather than a GO TO, and the use of the I0 format code. Subroutine DEBLANK is straightforward, and omitted. It was only to remove spaces from the text of the expression. Reading the expression from right to left is about as picky as left-to-right.

J

Since J has no verb precedence, -1-2 would evaluate to 1 and not to -3. That's why I decided to multiply each of the partitions of '123456789' (like '123','45', '6', '78', '9') with each possible +1/-1 vectors of length 9 (like 1 1 -1 1 -1 -1 1 1 -1) and to add up the results. This leads to 512*256 results, that of course include a lot of duplicates. To use directly ~. (nub) on the 512x256x9 vector is very slow and that's why I computed a sort of a hash to use it to get only the unique expressions. The rest is trivial - I check which expressions add up to 100; sort the sum vector and find the longest sequence ot repeating sums; get the 10 largest sums and finnaly check which sum differs with more then 1 from the previous one.

Java

{{Works with|Java|8}} {{trans|C++}} For each expression of sum s, there is at least one expression whose sum is -s. If the sum s can be represented by n expressions, the sum -s can also be represented by n expressions. The change of all signs in an expression change the sign of the sum of this expression. For example, -1+23-456+789 has the opposite sign than +1-23+456-789. Therefore only the positive sum with the maximum number of solutions is shown. The program does not check uniqueness of this sum. We can easily check (modifying the program) that: sum 9 has 46 solutions; sum -9 has 46 solutions; any other sum has less than 46 solutions.

For ease of understanding, the problems will be solved separately, using the machinery defined in the following section.

'''All possible sums'''

  else generate(n-1) + pm +  [n]
  end;

# The numerical value of a "sum"
def addup:
  reduce .[] as $x ({sum:0, previous: "0"};
     if   $x == "+" then .sum += (.previous|tonumber) | .previous = ""
     elif $x == "-" then .sum += (.previous|tonumber) | .previous = "-"

def histogram(s): reduce s as $x ({}; ($x|tostring) as $k | .[$k] += 1);

# Emit an array of [ value, frequency ] pairs

perl -MList::Util="first" -E "@c[0..10**6]=(0..10**6);say for grep{$e=eval;$c[$e]=undef if $e>=0;$h{$e}++;eval $_==100}glob'{-,}'.join'{+,-,}',1..9;END{say for(sort{$h{$b}<=>$h{$a}}grep{$_>=0}keys %h)[0],first{defined $_}@c;say for(sort{$b<=>$a}grep{$_>0}keys %h)[0..9]}"

which outputs

This is just a trivial count in base 3, with a leading '+' being irrelevant, so from 0(3)000_000_000 to 0(3)122_222_222 which is only (in decimal) 13,122 ...

Admittedly, categorising them into 3429 bins is slightly more effort, but otherwise I am somewhat bemused by all the applescript/javascript/Haskell shenanegins.

Of course, one could just code-convert the existing C# example, but I thought this could be written with some simpler constructs. The point of doing this is to make the code more compatible with other BASIC languages. Not every language has something similar to the Enumerable Range construct. I also found the Dictionary construct could be implemented with something more primitive.

Another interesting thing this program can do is solve for other sets of numbers easily, as neither the number of digits, nor the digit sequence itself, is hard-coded. You could solve for the digits 1 through 8, for example, or the digits starting at 9 and going down to 1. One can even override the target sum (of 100) parameter, if you happen to be interested in another number.
