Explore how to identify all subsets of distinct positive integers that sum to a given target k. Learn to implement an efficient solution considering time and space constraints, enhancing your problem-solving skills for coding interviews.
Statement
Given an array of n distinct positive integers, find all possible subsets of these integers such that the sum of the elements in each subset equals a given target value k.
Return a 2D array, where each inner array represents a subset whose sum equals k.
Constraints:
1≤n≤10
1≤x≤100, where x is any member of the input array.
1≤k≤103
