90 Subset II

Given a collection of integers that might contain duplicates,nums, return all possible subsets (the power set).

Note:The solution set must not contain duplicate subsets.

For example,
Ifnums=[1,2,2], a solution is:

[
  [2],
  [1],
  [1,2,2],
  [2,2],
  [1,2],
  []
]

Solution)

We have to exclude duplicate subsets.

class Solution {
    public List<List<Integer>> subsetsWithDup(int[] nums) {
        List<List<Integer>> list = new ArrayList<>();
        Arrays.sort(nums);
        backtrack(list, new ArrayList<>(), nums, 0);
        return list;
    }

    private void backtrack(List<List<Integer>> list, List<Integer> tempList, int [] nums, int start){
        list.add(new ArrayList<>(tempList));
        for(int i = start; i < nums.length; i++){
            if(i > start && nums[i] == nums[i-1]) continue; // skip duplicates
            tempList.add(nums[i]);
            backtrack(list, tempList, nums, i + 1);
            tempList.remove(tempList.size() - 1);
        }
    } 
}
