Recursion Class 3

The document discusses 5 recursion problems - printing all permutations of a string, counting paths in a maze, tiling problem, friends pairing problem, and finding subsets of a set. For each problem, Java code for the recursive solution is provided along with analysis of time complexity.

Q1. Print all the permutations of a string.

public class Recursion3 {

public static void printPermutation(String str, int idx, String perm) {


if(str.length() == 0) {
System.out.println(perm);
return;
}

for(int i=0; i<str.length(); i++) {


char currChar = str.charAt(i);
String newStr = str.substring(0, i) + str.substring(i+1);
printPermutation(newStr, idx+1, perm+currChar);
}
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
String str = "abc";
printPermutation(str, 0, "");
}
}

Time complexity - O(n*n!)

Q2. CountPathMaze

public class Recursion3 {

public static int countPaths(int i, int j, int m, int n) {


if(i == m-1 || j == n-1) {
return 1;
}

return countPaths(i+1, j, m, n) + countPaths(i, j+1, m, n);


}

public static void main(String args[]) {


int m = 4, n = 5;
System.out.println(countPaths(0, 0, m, n));
}
}
Time complexity - O(2^(m+n))

Q3. Tiling problem

public class Recursion3 {

public static int placeTiles(int n, int m) {


if(n < m) {
return 1;
} else if(n == m) {
return 2;
}

return placeTiles(n-1, m) + placeTiles(n-m, m);


}

public static void main(String args[]) {


int n = 4, m = 4;
System.out.println(placeTiles(n, m));
}
}

Q4. Friends pairing problem

public class Recursion3 {

public static int pairFriends(int n) {


if(n <= 1) {
return 1;
}

return pairFriends(n-1) + (n-1) * pairFriends(n-2);


}

public static void main(String args[]) {


int n = 3;
System.out.println(pairFriends(n));
}
}
Q5. Subsets of a set

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class Recursion3 {

public static void printSubsets(ArrayList<Integer> subset) {


for(int i=0; i<subset.size(); i++) {
System.out.print(subset.get(i)+" ");
}
System.out.println();
}

public static void findSubsets(int n, ArrayList<Integer> subset) {


if(n == 0) {
printSubsets(subset);
return;
}

findSubsets(n-1, subset);
subset.add(n);
findSubsets(n-1, subset);
subset.remove(subset.size() - 1);
}

public static void main(String args[]) {


int n = 3;
findSubsets(n, new ArrayList<Integer> ());
}
}
