Update: Sorry, I'm kind of busy, so I don't have much time to explain it. It's a classical example of Dynamic Programming - the only complication is the numbers can be repeated, which I solved using the $unique hash. It's probably possible to build the solutions in a unique way right away in the recursive function, so there won't be any postprocessing needed.

Update 2: For a speed-up, add

use Memoize; memoize('_summands');
and, as found by haukex in Fastest way to "pick without replacement", replace
my $number = $numbers[$index]; my @remaining = @numbers[ grep $_ != $index, 0 .. $#numbers ];
by
my @remaining = @numbers; my ($number) = splice @remaining, $index, 1;

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
