Unique Paths

Problem Statement

There is a robot on an m x n grid. The robot is initially located at the top-left corner (i.e., grid[0][0]). The robot tries to move to the bottom-right corner (i.e., grid[m - 1][n - 1]). The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time.

Given the two integers m and n, return the number of possible unique paths that the robot can take to reach the bottom-right corner.

The test cases are generated so that the answer will be less than or equal to 2 * 109.

Input: m = 3, n = 7
Output: 28

Example 2:

Input: m = 3, n = 2
Output: 3

Explanation: From the top-left corner, there are a total of 3 ways to reach the bottom-right corner:
1. Right -> Down -> Down
2. Down -> Down -> Right
3. Down -> Right -> Down

Constraints:

  • 1 <= m, n <= 100

java Code

public class Solution {
public int uniquePaths(int m, int n) {
Integer[][] map = new Integer[m][n];
for(int i = 0; i<m;i++){
map[i][0] = 1;
}
for(int j= 0;j<n;j++){
map[0][j]=1;
}
for(int i = 1;i<m;i++){
for(int j = 1;j<n;j++){
map[i][j] = map[i-1][j]+map[i][j-1];
}
}
return map[m-1][n-1];
}
