Coin Combinations 1 - CSES

I actually got AC for this problem where it’s clearly mentioned that all coins are distinct integers. But it got hacked. The hack had non-distinct coins.
My code:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
 
using namespace std;
const int mod = 1e9+7;
 
int main()
{
    ios_base::sync_with_stdio(0);
    cin.tie(0);
    cout.tie(0);
    int n, x;
    cin >> n >> x;
    vector <long long> v(n), dp(1000001);
    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) cin >> v[i], dp[v[i]] = 1;
    sort(v.begin(), v.end());
    for (int i = 1; i <= x; ++i)
    {
        for (int j = 0; j < n; ++j)
        {
            if (v[j] > i) break;
            else dp[i] += (dp[i-v[j]]), dp[i] %= mod;
        }
    }
    cout << dp[x] << '\n';
}

Please let me know if my solution is right for distinct coins (it got accepted for the other tests). I just want a yes/no answer (please, no code).
Thanks.

Yes. if you want AC, remove the sort :slight_smile:

I removed the sort and I got WA in 5 more tests :sweat_smile:

you also need to change the break to a continue if you remove the sort.

That test is removed now.

Yes, it is. It wasn’t valid right? Was it a bug?

There was a bug in the testcase validator.

// READ THE QUESTION PROPERLY

memset(dp, 0, sizeof(dp));
cout<<f(money);

return 0;
}

i got TLE for this code

Hey @iaish apply bottom up dp approach
