[Solved] There is a robot on an m x n grid. The robot is initially located at the top-left corner (i.e., grid[0][0]). The robot tries to move to the bottom-right corner (i.e., grid[m – 1][n – 1]). The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time. Given the two integers m and n, return the number of possible unique paths that the robot can take to reach the bottom-right corner.

Question

There is a robot on an m x n grid. The robot is initially located at the top-left corner (i.e., grid[0][0]). The robot tries to move to the bottom-right corner (i.e., grid[m - 1][n - 1]). The robot can only move either down or right at any point in time.

Given the two integers m and n, return the number of possible unique paths that the robot can take to reach the bottom-right corner.

The test cases are generated so that the answer will be less than or equal to 2 * 109.

Example 1:

Machine Learning Projects
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

Constraints:

  • 1 <= m, n <= 100

Python Solution

class Solution:
    def uniquePaths(self, m: int, n: int) -> int:
        dp_grid = [[1 for i in range (n)] for j in range (m)]
        for i in range (1,m):
            for j in range (1,n):
                dp_grid[i][j] = dp_grid[i-1][j] + dp_grid[i][j-1]
        return dp_grid[-1][-1]
