216. Combination Sum III

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

Note:

All numbers will be positive integers.

The solution set must not contain duplicate combinations.

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]]

难度：medium

题目：找出所有可能的Ｋ个数之和为n的组合，只可以使用1到9之间的数。

注意：所有数都为正，给出的答案中不包含重复的数。

思路：递归
