Light OJ: 1326 – Race

Problem Link : http://lightoj.com:81/volume/problem/1326

Solution Idea:

Let’s define dp(i) as the number of ways in which a race with “i” horses can finish.

Suppose we have “i” horses at the race and we will choose k of them for the first place, leaving “i – k” for the second (or higher) place. The process to count the number of ways to choose horses for the second place is equals to the original problem. This is the reason why we use dp.

(This Solution idea is from Manuel Pinda)
