The changes focus on improving code quality, readability, and documentation. Key improvements include: 1. Enhanced code structure and efficiency: - Removed class-level variables for better thread safety - Optimized the recursive approach to avoid unnecessary calculations - Simplified the overall logic for easier understanding 2. Improved readability: - Used more descriptive variable names (e.g., 'targetSum' instead of 'n', 'power' instead of 'x') - Enhanced method structure with a private recursive helper method 3. Better documentation: - Added comprehensive JavaDoc comments explaining the algorithm's purpose and implementation - Clarified the meaning of parameters, especially relating them to the original problem statement (N and X) - Improved inline comments for better code understanding 4. Adhered to Java best practices: - Improved encapsulation by making the recursive method private - Used Math.pow() directly instead of a custom power method 5. Maintained core functionality: - The algorithm still solves the same problem as before, but with improved code quality --- .../thealgorithms/backtracking/PowerSum.java | 69 ++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 36 insertions(+), 33 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/main/java/com/thealgorithms/backtracking/PowerSum.java b/src/main/java/com/thealgorithms/backtracking/PowerSum.java index 6617ea326a1c..8ac21b714efb 100644 --- a/src/main/java/com/thealgorithms/backtracking/PowerSum.java +++ b/src/main/java/com/thealgorithms/backtracking/PowerSum.java @@ -1,45 +1,48 @@ package com.thealgorithms.backtracking; -/* - * Problem Statement : - * Find the number of ways that a given integer, N , can be expressed as the sum of the Xth powers - * of unique, natural numbers.
