Write a program to print all the combinations of factors of given number n.
Examples:
Input : 16 Output :2 2 2 2 2 2 4 2 8 4 4 Input : 12 Output : 2 2 3 2 6 3 4
To solve this problem we take one array of array of integers or list of list of integers to store all the factors combination possible for the given n. So, to achieve this we can have one recursive function which can store the factors combination in each of its iteration. And each of those list should be stored in the final result list.
Below is the implementation of the above approach.
#include <iostream> #include <vector> using namespace std;
// Function to find all factor combinations of a number void backtrack( int start, int target, vector< int >& factors,
vector<vector< int > >& combinations, int n)
{ // Base case: if target is 1, we have found a
// factorization
if (target == 1) {
// Add a copy of the factors vector to combinations,
// except if the vector contains only one factor
// equal to n
if (factors.size() > 1 || factors[0] != n) {
combinations.push_back(factors);
}
return ;
}
// Try all factors from start to target, inclusive
for ( int i = start; i <= target; i++) {
if (target % i == 0) {
factors.push_back(i); // Add i to factors
backtrack(i, target / i, factors, combinations,
n); // Recursively find factors of
// target / i
factors.pop_back(); // Remove i from factors
}
}
} // Function to call backtrack and return the factor // combinations vector<vector< int > > factorCombinations( int n)
{ vector<vector< int > > combinations;
vector< int > factors;
backtrack(2, n, factors, combinations, n);
return combinations;
} int main()
{ int n = 12;
vector<vector< int > > combinations
= factorCombinations(n);
cout << "All the combinations of factors of " << n
<< " are:" << endl;
for (vector< int > combination : combinations) {
for ( int factor : combination) {
cout << factor << " " ;
}
cout << endl;
}
return 0;

All the combinations of factors of 12 are: [2, 2, 3] [2, 6] [3, 4]
Time Complexity: O(sqrt(n) * log(n)), where n is the input integer.
Auxiliary Space: O(log(n)), where n is the input integer.
Another Approach:
The code below is pure recursive code for printing all combinations of factors:
It uses a vector of integer to store a single list of factors and a vector of integer to store all combinations of factors. Instead of using an iterative loop, it uses the same recursive function to calculate all factor combinations.
// C++ program to print all factors combination #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std;
// vector of vector for storing // list of factor combinations vector<vector< int > > factors_combination;
// recursive function void compute_factors( int current_no, int n, int product,
vector< int > single_list)
{ // base case: if the product
// exceeds our given number;
// OR
// current_no exceeds half the given n
if (current_no > (n / 2) || product > n)
return ;
// if current list of factors
// is contributing to n
if (product == n) {
// storing the list
factors_combination.push_back(single_list);
// into factors_combination
return ;
}
// including current_no in our list
single_list.push_back(current_no);
// trying to get required
// n with including current
// current_no
compute_factors(current_no, n, product * current_no,
single_list);
// excluding current_no from our list
single_list.pop_back();
// trying to get required n
// without including current
// current_no
compute_factors(current_no + 1, n, product,
single_list);
} // Driver Code int main()
{ int n = 16;
// vector to store single list of factors
// eg. 2,2,2,2 is one of the list for n=16
vector< int > single_list;
// compute_factors ( starting_no, given_n,
// our_current_product, vector )
compute_factors(2, n, 1, single_list);
// printing all possible factors stored in
// factors_combination
for ( int i = 0; i < factors_combination.size(); i++) {
for ( int j = 0; j < factors_combination[i].size();
j++)
cout << factors_combination[i][j] << " " ;
cout << endl;
}
return 0;
