62. Unique Paths

Medium

A robot is located at the top-left corner of a m x n grid (marked ‘Start’ in the diagram below).

The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time. The robot is trying to reach the bottom-right corner of the grid (marked ‘Finish’ in the diagram below).

How many possible unique paths are there?

Example 1:

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 

Example 3:

Input: m = 7, n = 3

Output: 28

Example 4:

Input: m = 3, n = 3

Output: 6

Solution

object Solution {
    def uniquePaths(m: Int, n: Int): Int = {
        val dp = Array.ofDim[Int](m, n)

        for (i <- 0 until m) {
            dp(i)(0) = 1
        }

        for (j <- 0 until n) {
            dp(0)(j) = 1
        }

        for (i <- 1 until m) {
            for (j <- 1 until n) {
                dp(i)(j) = dp(i - 1)(j) + dp(i)(j - 1)
            }
        }

        dp(m - 1)(n - 1)
    }
}
