Count of sequence of length K in range [1, N] where every element is a multiple of its previous one

Given two integers N and K, the task is to find the count of sequences of K elements from the range [1, N] where every element is a multiple of the previous element.

Example:

Input: N = 4, K = 3 
Output: 13
Explanation: The sequences that can be made from the integers 1, 2, 3, 4 having 3 elements are: {1, 1, 1}, {2, 2, 2}, {3, 3, 3}, {4, 4, 4}, {1, 1, 2}, {1, 2, 2}, {1, 2, 4}, {1, 1, 3}, {1, 3, 3}, {1, 1, 4}, {1, 4, 4}, {2, 2, 4}, and {2, 4, 4}.

Input: N = 9, K = 5 
Output: 111

 

Approach: The given problem can be solved using recursion with memoization. Follow the below steps to solve the problem:

  • Create a 2D array dp[][] which stores the memorized states where dp[i][j] represents the count of sequences of length i having j as their first element.
  • Create a recursive function countSequenceUtil(), that takes the length of the sequence and the starting element as arguments, sets the next element as a multiple of the current element, and recursively calls for the remaining sequence.
  • Store the answer for the calculated states in the dp[][] array and if for some state the value is already calculated, return it.
  • Create a function countSequence() which iterates through all the possible starting elements of the sequence and calls the recursive function to calculate the sequences of K elements with that starting element.
  • Maintain the sum of the calculated count for each starting element in a variable ans which is the required value.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ implementation for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Initialize the dp matrix
int static dp[1001][1001];
 
// Function to find the count of sequences of K
// elements with first element as m where every
// element is a multiple of the previous one
int countSequenceUtil(int k, int m, int n)
{
    // Base case
    if (k == 1) {
        return 1;
    }
 
    // If the value already exists
    // in the DP then return it
    if (dp[k][m] != -1) {
        return dp[k][m];
    }
 
    // Variable to store the count
    int res = 0;
 
    for (int i = 1; i <= (n / m); i++) {
 
        // Recursive Call
        res += countSequenceUtil(k - 1,
                                 m * i, n);
    }
 
    // Store the calculated
    // answer and return it
    return dp[k][m] = res;
}
 
// Function to find count of sequences of K
// elements in the range [1, n] where every
// element is a multiple of the previous one
int countSequence(int N, int K)
{
    // Initializing all values
    // of dp with -1
    memset(dp, -1, sizeof(dp));
 
    // Variable to store
    // the total count
    int ans = 0;
 
    // Iterate from 1 to N
    for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
        ans += countSequenceUtil(K, i, N);
    }
 
    // Return ans
    return ans;
}

Efficient approach : Using DP Tabulation method ( Iterative approach )

The approach to solve this problem is same but DP tabulation(bottom-up) method is better then Dp + memoization(top-down) because memoization method needs extra stack space of recursion calls.

Steps to solve this problem :

  • Create a table to store the solution of the subproblems.
  • Initialize the table with base cases
  • Fill up the table iteratively
  • Return the final solution

Implementation :

C++




// C++ program for above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the count of sequences of K
// elements with first element as m where every
// element is a multiple of the previous one
int countSequence(int N, int K)
{
    // Initialize the dp matrix
    int dp[K + 1][N + 1];
 
    // Base case
    for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
        dp[1][i] = 1;
    }
 
    // Tabulate the dp matrix
    for (int k = 2; k <= K; k++) {
        for (int m = 1; m <= N; m++) {
            dp[k][m] = 0;
            for (int i = 1; i <= (N / m); i++) {
                dp[k][m] += dp[k - 1][m * i];
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Compute the final result
    int ans = 0;
    for (int i = 1; i <= N; i++) {
        ans += dp[K][i];
    }
 
    // Return the answer
    return ans;
}
