Given a positive integer k and an array arr[] of size n contains distinct elements, the task is to find the number of ordered pairs (A, B) that can be made where A and B are subsets of the given array arr[] and A ∩ B contains exactly k (1 <= k <= n).
Example:
Input: arr = {1, 2}, k = 1
Output: 6
Explanation: The subsets of the array are {}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}, and {1, 2, 3}. The ordered pairs (A, B) where A ∩ B contains k elements: ({1}, {1}), ({2}, {2}), ({1, 2}, {2}), ({2}, {1,2}), ({1}, {1, 2}), ({1, 2}, {1})Input: arr = {1, 2, 3}, k = 2
Output: 9
Approach:
Select k elements from n elements (nCk) and put in both subset A, B. Rest elements have 3 options it will either be included in A, B, or not included in either A or B. Hence, there would be 3(n - k) possible combinations for given array of size n.
Steps-by-step approach:
- Create a function nCr() that calculates the binomial coefficient "n choose r."
- Calculate the binomial coefficient inside the nCr function using the formula nCr = n! / (r! * (n-r)!).
- Calculates the number of ordered pairs (A, B) where A and B are subsets of a given array arr, and A ∩ B contains exactly k elements.
- Return the result of nCr(n, k) * pow(3, n - k).
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
// Define the modulo constant
const long long MOD = 1e9 + 7;
// Function to find nCr
long long nCr(long long n, long long r)
{
long long sum = 1;
// Calculate the value of n choose r using the binomial
// coefficient formula
for (long long i = 1; i <= r; i++) {
sum = sum * (n - r + i) / i;
}
return sum;
}
// Function to calculate power using binary exponentiation
long long binpow(long long base, long long exp)
{
base %= MOD; // Take modulo of base to keep it within
// range
long long result = 1; // Initialize result
while (exp
> 0) { // Loop until exponent is greater than 0
if (exp & 1) // If exponent is odd
result = (result * base)
% MOD; // Multiply result with base
base = (base * base) % MOD; // Square the base
exp >>= 1; // Divide the exponent by 2
}

Time Complexity: O(k)
Auxiliary Space: O(log(n - k)), due to recusive call stack of pow().
