Leetcode: Combination Sum III

Find all possible combinations of k numbers that add up to a numbern, given that only numbers from 1 to 9 can be used and each combination should be a unique set of numbers.

Example 1:

Input: k = 3, n = 7

Output:

[[1,2,4]]

Example 2:

Input: k = 3, n = 9

Output:

[[1,2,6], [1,3,5], [2,3,4]]
