Sum of all subsets of a set formed by first n natural numbers
A Set is a collection of data elements. Subset of a set is a set formed by only the elements after parent set. for example, B is A subset of a if all elements of B exist in A.
Here we need to find the sum of all subsets of a set found by first n natural numbers. this means I need to find all subsets that can be formed and then adding them. Let's take an example,
N = 3
Set = {1,2,3}
subsets formed = { {1}, {2}, {3}, {1,2}, {1,3}, {2,3}, {1,2,3,} }
Sum = 1+1+2+1+3+2+2+3+3+1+2+3 = 24
Lets rearrange the sum, 1+1+1+1+2+2+2+2+3+3+3 = 4(1+2+3) = 24
There exists a mathematical formula for this type of series, General formula of the series is 2^n*(n^2 + n + 2) – 1.
Example
#include <stdio.h>
#define mod (int)(1e9 + 7)
int power(int x, int y) {
int res = 1;
x = x % mod;
while (y > 0) {
if (y & 1)
res = (res * x) % mod;
y = y >> 1;
x = (x * x) % mod;
}
return res;
}
int main() {
int n = 45;
n--;
int ans = n * n;
if (ans >= mod)
ans %= mod;
ans += n + 2;
if (ans >= mod)
ans %= mod;
ans = (power(2, n) % mod * ans % mod) % mod;
ans = (ans - 1 + mod) % mod;
printf("The sum of the series is %d
", ans);
return 0;
}Output
The sim of the series is 2815
